Bosnia and Herzegovina: FBiH adopts 2050 building renovation strategy to boost energy efficiency

The Government of the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina has adopted a long-term strategy for building renovation, aiming for significant energy efficiency improvements by 2050. This strategy, proposed by the Federal Ministry of Spatial Planning, is designed to reduce energy consumption and CO2 emissions while enhancing construction activities and building comfort.

The strategic goal is to transform existing buildings into energy-efficient and decarbonized structures. Specifically, the strategy targets a reduction in final energy consumption from 1,728,500 tons of oil equivalent (as measured in 2020) to 1,257,300 tons by 2050, along with a decrease in CO2 emissions from 7,937,000 tons to 2,075,000 tons.

The plan outlines various renovation scenarios, targeting energy efficiency improvements in 0.8%, 1%, and 1.5% of the usable heated area of buildings. Depending on the chosen scenario, the number of buildings eligible for renovation could range from 95,173 to 177,663, with the total renovated area spanning between 12,588,276 and 23,483,657 square meters. Estimated energy savings from these renovations are projected to be between 1,893 GWh and 3,532 GWh.

Energy renovations of both residential and non-residential buildings are expected to lead to reduced energy consumption, yielding financial savings for public and private sectors, while also lowering CO2 emissions. Additionally, intensive renovation efforts are anticipated to boost employment in the construction industry, enhance the value and lifespan of buildings, and improve indoor air quality.

The legal foundation for this strategy is rooted in European Union directives on energy efficiency and the energy performance of buildings, which are mandatory under the Energy Community Treaty. The strategy aligns with the action plan for energy efficiency in the Federation and draws on projections from the National Energy and Climate Plan (NECP) of Bosnia and Herzegovina, facilitating the implementation of energy efficiency measures outlined in the NECP. The next step involves parliamentary approval from the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
