Compared to the second quarter, this is an increase of 40 percent. Year-on-year, however, the total investment volume in 2023 is lower than in 2022, by 50 percent.

In the high-rise office building Tower 115 in Bratislava, energy modernization was completed, which brings annual savings of several thousand euros and at the same time saves 400 tons of CO2 emissions. The innovative solution developed by the Slovak start-up Fuergy is based on a large smart battery storage that can shift the consumption of electricity over time, thereby reducing the load on the electricity grid. The owner of the building receives a financial reward for this service. The entire solution can be used in many of the hundreds of older administrative buildings in Slovakia, thus reducing the costs of their operation without additional investments.

Companies in Slovakia are planning significant recruitments towards the end of the year, which should be the strongest in the last two years.
