Bosnia and Herzegovina: Electricity imports quadruple in early 2025, net exports remain positive

Supported byClarion Energy

According to Edhem Bicakcic from the national CIGRE committee, Bosnia and Herzegovina’s electricity imports in the first half of 2025 increased fourfold compared to the same period in 2024, reaching a cost of 163.5 million euros.

Official data from the Independent System Operator and the Statistics Agency show that domestic electricity generation totaled 6.6 TWh in the first six months, marking a 3% decline year-on-year. Meanwhile, consumption within the transmission network was 5.5 TWh.

On the export side, the country sent 3.8 TWh abroad, which is a 7% decrease compared to last year. However, export revenues rose by 60% to 240 million euros. Electricity imports remained steady at 2.7 TWh, roughly equal to the previous year’s level.

As a result, net electricity exports dropped by 15% to 1.1 TWh, and the net export revenue decreased by 29% to 76.7 million euros. Despite these declines, the overall net export position stayed positive, largely supported by private-sector producers.

Bicakcic attributes this mixed performance mainly to coal shortages and less favorable hydrological conditions.
