Electricity prices for medium-sized commercial consumers in Bosnia and Herzegovina rose 7.7% year on year in the first half of 2026, exceeding the increase recorded for households.
Businesses consuming 500–2,000 MWh annually paid an average €118.60/MWh excluding VAT. Households using 2,500–5,000 kWh annually saw prices rise 6.5%, reaching about €83.90/MWh before taxes and €99.50/MWh including VAT and other charges.
The figures show rising electricity costs across both customer groups, with commercial users facing the larger percentage increase.
Gas prices also differed between household and business customers. Residential users paid an average €14.52/GJ including VAT, compared with €12.40/GJ before VAT.
Non-household consumers paid approximately €17.69/GJ including taxes and €15.13/GJ excluding VAT.
The commercial electricity increase adds to operating costs for businesses, particularly those with limited scope to reduce consumption or pass higher energy bills on to customers.
