Bosnia and Herzegovina sees growth in electricity exports, despite decrease in production

In 2024, Bosnia and Herzegovina exported 8.4 TWh of electricity, marking an 8% increase from the previous year, according to Edhem Bicakcic, President of the Regional Council of Southeastern Europe for the International Council on Large Electric Systems (CIGRE). However, the financial value of these exports totaled around 327 million euros, accounting for 60% of the value of electricity exports in 2023.

At the same time, the country’s electricity imports rose to 5.9 TWh, a 57% increase from 2023. As a result, net exports amounted to 2.5 TWh, reflecting a 36% decrease, with a financial value of 248 million euros, which is 42% lower than in the previous year.

In terms of domestic electricity production, Bosnia and Herzegovina generated 14.3 TWh in 2024, an 8% decrease compared to 2023. This decline was largely attributed to unfavorable hydrological conditions. Hydropower plants produced 4.7 TWh, a 25% decrease from the previous year, while thermal power plants maintained their output at 8.4 TWh. Wind and solar power plants contributed 1.2 TWh to the overall production. Electricity consumption remained stable at 11.3 TWh, unchanged from 2023.
