Gross electricity production in the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina (FBiH) reached 690 GWh in March 2026, marking a 4.7% decrease compared to 724 GWh in the same month last year. Within the total production mix, hydropower plants accounted for 52.2%, thermal power plants for 40%, and wind farms for 7.8%, reflecting a relatively balanced but still hydro-dominated energy structure.
Net electricity production stood at 654 GWh, with 358 GWh generated by hydropower plants, 242 GWh by thermal power plants, and 54 GWh by wind farms. At the same time, electricity imports dropped sharply to 50 GWh from 172 GWh a year earlier, while exports increased to 125 GWh compared to 88 GWh in March 2025, indicating a stronger export position and reduced reliance on imports.
Coal production trends showed a continued decline. Brown coal output fell to 222,825 tons, representing a 23.7% decrease compared to March 2024, when production reached 292,008 tons. Lignite production also declined by 11.1%, totaling 104,201 tons compared to 117,201 tons a year earlier. Meanwhile, coke production in March 2026 was recorded at zero, following the permanent closure of the Lukavac coke plant, marking a significant structural shift in the region’s industrial and energy landscape.
