This document sets Bosnia's energy efficiency legal framework and transposes three European directives. It seeks to reduce negative environmental impacts, increase energy security, meet energy demand for end-users, and lower greenhouse gases emissions The law regulates in particular end-use efficiency, the adoption and implementation of energy efficiency improvement plans...

  • GHG emissions reduction target for 2050 is 50.0% (unconditional) and 55.0% (conditional) compared to 2014, that is, 61.7% (unconditional) and 65.6% (conditional) compared to modelling 1990. In the case of conditional target, more intensive international assistance is expected for faster decarbonisation of the power sector with an emphasis on fair transition of mining areas. Not all of these targets include GHG sinks. The unconditional GHG emissions reduction target for 2030 is 12.8% compared to 2014 or 33.2% compared to 1990. The conditional target (with more intensive international assistance for the decarbonisation of mining areas) for 2030 is 17.5% compared to 2014 or 36.8% compared to 1990. From 2016 iNDC: 2% (unconditional) to 23% (conditional) reduction in GHG emissions by 2030 compared to the BAU scenario, which would mean 18% higher (unconditional) to 3% reduction (conditional) compared to 1990.Economy-wide | Target year: 2050
