The European Commission has submitted an ANNEX to the Proposal for a Council Implementing Decision amending the Implementing Decision of 28 July 2021 on the approval of the assessment of the recovery and resilience plan for Slovenia.

• Main action: The Annex sets out detailed reforms, investments, milestones and monitoring arrangements across 17 components (energy, buildings, water, transport, digital, RDI, social policies, etc.), with an estimated total cost of EUR 2 082 352 849 and a dedicated REPowerEU chapter of EUR 122 170 000; it also specifies scheduled instalments and payment conditions (examples: instalments of EUR 57 064 305, EUR 147 498 852, EUR 156 822 253, EUR 163 730 733, EUR 232 175 896, EUR 310 091 602 among others) and concrete timelines to Q2 2026 for many targets. Key commitments include voluntary contributions to the EuroHPC Joint Undertaking of EUR 50 051 243 (plus an additional EUR 21 593 760), and numerous quantified infrastructure targets (e.g., 838 transformer stations, 260 km low-voltage network, 6 MW district heating renewables, 30 MW new renewable capacity, 484 charging points, 7925 zero-emission vehicle co-financing decisions).
• Context and implementation: The Annex is an official Commission annex (COM(2026)305 final, SWD(2026)163 final) detailing legal milestones, monitoring arrangements and the role of the Office for the Implementation of the Recovery and Resilience Plan (Ministry of Finance - MFERAC) as Coordinating Authority; it sets payment-linked milestones and requires that Slovenia provide the Commission full access to underlying relevant data for verification, audit and payment requests. The document is an administrative/legal specification (annex to a proposed Council implementing decision), not an opinion piece.
