The Slovenian Energy Association (SEA) brings together companies, organisations, institutions, and individual members whose activities are directly or indirectly related to thermal energy; creates conditions for sharing expertise and training; and cooperates with similar sectors in Slovenia and internationally. SEA is organised into four divisions: Production, Heat and gas transmission and distribution, Energy use, and Basic and applied knowledge. This organisational structure allows SEA to cover the entire energy supply chain, with basic and applied knowledge to support it. By focusing on energy efficiency and the use of renewable energy sources in all stages of the energy supply chain, the Association ensures that all divisions are connected horizontally.
