What one OEE point is worth in Slovenia

On a reference two-shift line (3,600 planned hours a year, a crew of four, 150 kW average load, starting at 60% OEE) one extra OEE point is worth €8,566 a year in Slovenia at national costs.

In shortOne OEE point frees 59 line-hours a year on the reference line. At €29.8 per labour hour and €0.1730 per kWh, that is €7,035 of labour time and €1,531 of electricity: €8,566 per point, per line, per year. If the freed capacity can be sold instead, the same point is +1.7% good output: about €8,133 of value added at Slovenia’s average manufacturing productivity. Slovenia is at position 13 of 22 European countries on this measure.

The math. Hours freed = planned hours × (1 − OEE now ÷ (OEE now + gain)): the same good output needs fewer planned hours. Value = hours freed × (operators × labour cost + kW × electricity price). Labour only counts if the hours are really released: overtime, a shift, agency staff or people moved to other work.

What moves the number in Slovenia

Hourly labour cost in Slovenia’s manufacturing rose 14.6% between 2023 and 2025 (EU-27: +9.0%). Every year on that slope raises the value of the same OEE point by about the same proportion. 82% of the value is labour time and 18% is electricity.

Public money for a measurement project in Slovenia

P4D, run by the Slovene Enterprise Fund, paid 50% of eligible costs, up to €100,000, to SMEs with at least five employees. Eligible costs included computer hardware, automation and robotisation equipment other than production machines, software and implementation services. Total project cost had to exceed €200,000. The 2025 call closed on 7 May 2025; a 2026 edition is not confirmed.

Method and limits

Reference line
3,600 planned hours a year (two eight-hour shifts on 225 days), four operators per shift, 150 kW average electrical load, 60% OEE before improvement. Change any of it in the calculator.

Value-added view
National manufacturing value added per person employed, €61,000 in 2025 (Eurostat nama_10_a10 ÷ nama_10_a10_e), for eight people, × 1/60. A national average, not your margin: use the OEE ROI calculator with your own contribution margin.
What it is not
Not a margin figure, and not everything a point is worth: maintenance, scrap and overhead effects are left out, and they usually make the real figure larger.

Questions

How much is one OEE point worth in Slovenia?
About €8,566 a year on a two-shift line with four operators and 150 kW load, starting from 60% OEE, at Slovenia’s national labour and electricity costs. On three shifts (6,000 planned hours) the same point is worth about €14,277.
Why does each OEE point get worth less as OEE rises?
Because each point is a smaller share of what the line already produces: from 60% to 61% saves 1/61 of planned time, from 80% to 81% only 1/81. At 80% OEE the same point is worth €6,451 in Slovenia.
Should I use this number in a business case?
Use it as the floor. It prices only released hours and electricity; if the line is sold out, value the extra output at your contribution margin instead, and add scrap and maintenance effects once you have measured them.
