Activities

The staff of around 700 is specialized in research in physics, chemistry and biochemistry, electronics and information science, nuclear technology, energy utilization and environmental science. A significant part of the work of the Jozef Stefan Institute reflects its concern for the environment. Multidisciplinary projects focussed on ecology involve the development and application of new technologies and the operation the Institute's Mobile ecology unit. The Energy Efficiency Centre (EEC) within the Institute has the mission to promote sustainable energy development. It is involved in research, development and consulting in the field of strategic energy planning, greenhouse gases mitigation, energy conservation programmes and energy management, and acts as focal point for the transfer of new and innovative energy technologies, at the meeting point of energy users, the State, energy service providers, and other shareholders. The Centre is a member of the OPET Network and it is the Slovenian national member in COGEN Europe.
As part of its support for applied research in the field of ecology, the Institute is one of the founders of ERICo Velenje, the Institute for Ecological Research. In 1995 the Nova Gorica Municipality and the Jozef Stefan Institute founded the first private postgraduate school in Slovenia, the Nova Gorica Polytechnic.
