3.1. Data description | |||
European statistics on electricity prices for household and final non-household customers. |
|||
3.2. Classification system | |||
Internal Eurostat classification system based on annual electricity consumption bands and tax levels. |
|||
3.3. Coverage - sector | |||
Household sector and final non-household sector (industry, services, offices, agriculture, etc). |
|||
3.4. Statistical concepts and definitions | |||
The prices are reported in national currencies per kWh and according to different bands of consumption. For the household sector, these bands are:
For the final non-household sector, the bands are:
There exist 2 different levels of disagregation for semestrial and annual prices: 1- Semestrial prices: These prices are reported twice a year and are divided in 3 levels:
2- Annual prices: These prices are reported once a year together with the data for the second semester and are divided into the following components and taxes:
In addition to these elements, the network cost is split into the respective shares of transmission and distribution. The relative share of consumption in the different consumption bands is reported by the countries and used to calculated the single national electricity prices (weighted averages for consumer bands IA-IF and DA-DE) but not published because it could be used to re-calculate some confidential values.
|
|||
3.5. Statistical unit | |||
Household and final non-household consumers divided into consumption bands. Electricity prices are collected from the electricity supplier. Suppliers are economic entities, companies that must own a license (license) for performing electricity supply activities in the territory of Bosnia and Herzegovina. The licenses are issued by the competent regulatory authorities of SERC, FERK and RERS, according to the location of the suppliers. |
|||
3.6. Statistical population | |||
In accordance with the terms of the license, the supplier is obliged to submit to the regulator the data on the consumption of final customers, income, and the realized average prices of electricity with the customers it supplies. These prices are obliged to record and display in accordance with the Eurostat methodology, especially for households, and especially for customers who are not classified as households (industrial, commercial, public institutions, public lighting and others). Number of suppliers: 25, number of active suppliers 10, total number of the end customers 1.548.740. |

|||
3.8. Coverage - Time | |||

|
|||
Prices are reported in national currency per kWh. Eurostat also calculates and publishes the prices in EURO and PPS (purchasing power parity). |
|
|||
For semestrial prices, the reference periods are from January to June for semester 1 and from July to December for semester 2. For annual prices, the reference period is the whole calendar year (from January to December). |

Accordingly, coverage errors are not possible, ie they are reduced to a minimum. |
|||
13.2. Sampling error | |||
Sample errors do not occur because the statistical analysis is not performed on a sample basis.

Source for data is BiH State Electricity Regulatory Commission (SERC). The State Electricity Regulatory Commission is an independent institution of Bosnia and Herzegovina, which acts in accordance with the principles of objectivity, transparency and equality, and has jurisdiction over and responsibility for transmission of electricity, transmission system operation and international trade in electricity as well as generation, distribution and supply of electricity for customers in Brčko District BIH. SERC was established by the Parliamentary Assembly of Bosnia and Herzegovina by adoption of the Act on Transmission of Electric Power, Regulator and System Operator of BIH, and appointment of the Members of the Commission. BHAS send the Questionnaire to SERC, they fill and sent it back via e-mail. |
|||
18.2. Frequency of data collection | |||
The prices collected cover average prices over a period of six months, from January to June (first half or semester 1) and from July to December (second half or semester 2) of each year. |
|||
18.3. Data collection | |||
In BHAS statistical release (Table 1 and Table 2) was given the average electricity price for the two categories of spending, households and non-household. Source for data is State Electricity Regulatory Commission (SERC). The prices collected cover average prices over a period of six months, from January to June (first half or semester 1) and from July to December (second half or semester 2) of each year. Prices include the basic price of the electricity, transmission and distribution charges, meter rental, and other services. Electricity prices for household consumers are presented including taxes, levies, non-tax levies, fees and value added tax (VAT) as this generally reflects the end price paid by household consumers. As non-household consumers are usually able to recover VAT and some other taxes, prices for enterprises are shown without VAT. |
|||
18.4. Data validation | |||
Processing errors were not detected. All data is processed in standard Excel tables with programmatically created formulas. |
|||
18.5. Data compilation | |||
Data on average electricity prices for end customers are recorded and calculated twice during the calendar year. Data are collected in regulatory institutions, in accordance with the terms of the license for supply, in the manner that suppliers deliver relevant price data for a six-month period on the prescribed forms. Forms have been formed in such a way that they exist for the number of customers, total energy, invoiced revenue for the network, invoiced revenue for energy and supplies, and the total invoiced amount. The value added tax (VAT) and the invoiced amount with the tax are also shown. On the basis of these data, the average price for the net and the average price for energy and supplies, and the total average price, is calculated. All variables are calculated for each class of consumption in the household category and category non-household customers. |
|||
18.5.1. Imputation - rate | |||
Not applicable |
|||
18.6. Adjustment | |||
Suppliers use seasonal tariffs in the supply of electricity to customers. The higher seasonal tariffs are applied in the period September-March or November-February, and lower seasonal positions in the period April-September or March-October depending on the supplier, and due to the symmetry compared to the semi-annual periods of price observation, seasonal tariff positions have no impact on time comparability, ie. seasonal tariff are neutral in terms of price. |
|||
18.6.1. Seasonal adjustment | |||
Seasonable adjustments are not carried out. |
