Sustainable development

Responsibility is one of the key values of the ELES Company. Sustainable development is thus realised with responsibility to the owner, the Republic of Slovenia, and with achieving business excellence, environmental protection and responsibility to the social environment.

The construction of transmission lines influences the natural and social environment. We do our best to minimise this influence. ELES has an important partner in local communities and carries out various activities to contribute to a better quality of life for their citizens.

Employees

Over 550 employees, experts in various fields, carry out their tasks in a responsible way. By using the knowledge and available modern technologies, they take care of the safe and reliable management, development, construction and maintenance of the high-voltage electric power transmission network.

They also deal with failures in the transmission network. In all kinds of weather, they do outreach work to re-establish an uninterrupted electricity transmission in the shortest possible time.

International cooperation

The electric power transmission network cannot be operated by itself. It needs to be connected to the networks in the neighbouring countries and integrated into a wider electric power system. Therefore, the ELES Company closely cooperates with the neighbouring system operators and actively participates in many regional and international associations.

Only successful international cooperation can ensure the stable operation of the European electric power transmission system and the maintenance of the 50 Hz frequency.

History overview

In 2014 we celebrated 90 years of the transmission network - 90 years of connectedness with people. It all started with the pioneers of electric power transmission in Laško and grew with the hands, hopes and knowledge of each and every employee.

Today, ELES’s network is a part of a modern electric power network and it also works towards the development of smart networks.
