THE POSSIBILITIES FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE ELECTRIC POWER SECTOR OF BOSNIA AND HERZEGOVINA

Abstract

This article overviews the existing condition and the development perspectives for the electric power sector of Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH) until 2020 [1]. Acknowledging the existing organisational structure of the electric power sector, an overview of electricity consumption projections is given per electric utility company, per entity and for Bosnia and Herzegovina as a whole. It is followed by descriptions of existing electric power (production) facilities, and the power plant candidates for construction in the following decade. An estimate of electricity export possibilities into neighbouring countries has also been made.
