Analysis# Bosnia and Herzegovina Renewable Energy Consumption
Bosnia and Herzegovina sourced 36.6% of its energy from renewable sources in 2021, just 1.1 percentage points below its all-time peak of 37.7% in 2020. This represents a dramatic transformation from 1990, when renewables accounted for only 7.3% of total consumption—a 401.4% increase over three decades. The country now stands among Europe's leaders in renewable energy integration.
The most significant shift occurred between 2017 and 2018, when renewable consumption jumped from 18.5% to 35.4%, a 16.9 percentage point surge driven largely by expanded hydroelectric capacity. After peaking in 2020, consumption dipped slightly to 36.6% in 2021, yet remains substantially elevated. The sustained high levels since 2018 suggest Bosnia and Herzegovina has successfully anchored its energy portfolio in renewables, positioning it well for continued clean energy transition.
