Highlights

  • Policy adoption is blocked by the fragmented administrative structure.
  • Progress is slow in transposing the EU acquis.
  • Three power generation and distribution companies benefit from regional monopolies.
  • The power sector unbundling process has been delayed.
  • Lignite supplied over 60% of the power mix.
  • The country is a net power exporter, with a level linked to hydropower generation.
  • Regulated prices are much lower than the EU average, except for gas in industry.
  • The energy mix is dominated by lignite (64% in 2019).
  • Electricity consumption declined in 2019 and 2020, due to the shutdown of an aluminium plant.
  • There are many power and gas interconnection projects with Croatia, Serbia and Montenegro.

Abstract

  • Institutions & Energy Policy

    Bosnia and Herzegovina is a Balkan country that became independent from Yugoslavia in 1992. Since the signing of the Dayton Peace Agreement in 1995, the country has been split in two entities, the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina (FBiH) and the Republic of Srpska (RS); in addition, the district of Brčko has a special status.

  • Energy Companies

    Electricity:

    The power sector consists of three vertically integrated public monopolies (90% public): Elektroprivreda BiH (EP BIH), Elektroprivreda RS (ERS) and Elektroprivreda HZ HB (EP HZ HB). The power companies are synchronised and interconnected but there is no competition among them; they are virtual monopolies within their exclusive service territories (no unbundling of distribution companies).

  • Energy Supply

    Gas:

    All the gas is imported by BH Gas from Russia through Hungary and Serbia. Gas imports declined by 3.7% in 2019, after a 9.6%/year rise between 2014 and 2017 (stable at 245 mcm in 2018). In 2015, Gazprom signed a contract with GAS RES, the company in charge of gas in the RS, to supply 106 mcm of gas directly to the RS.

  • Energy Prices

    Oil:

    Motor fuel prices are following international trends, rising between 2016 and 2019 (+6.5% for gasoline and +9.8%/year for diesel) and falling in 2020 (-13% and -17%, respectively). They had surged between 2000 and 2012 (+71% for gasoline and doubling for diesel) and declined until 2016 (-7%/year and -8%/year, respectively).

  • Energy Consumption

    The country's overall consumption per capita reaches 1.8 toe (36% below the EU average in 2019) with electricity accounting for 3 435 kWh (36% below the EU average).

  • Issues & Prospects

    Electricity:

    According to NOS BIH's plans, electricity consumption is expected to increase by 1.1%/year between 2020 and 2031. Many power projects have been announced, including 1.4 GW of lignite-fired projects, 1.5 GW of hydropower, 2.9 GW of wind, and 0.4 GW of solar, but NOS BIH expects less than 600 MW to be commissioned by 2031.
