Elektrohercegovina

What Elektrohercegovina does

Elektro-Hercegovina (ODS "Elektro-Hercegovina" a.d. Trebinje) is a regulated electricity distribution system operator serving approximately 34,000 measurement points across the eastern Herzegovina region of Republika Srpska, Bosnia and Herzegovina. Its licensed territory covers the city of Trebinje and four municipalities (Trebinje, Bileća, Gacko, Nevesinje, and Ljubinje). The company operates the physical distribution network — 9 HV/MV substations at 35/10 kV, 729 LV substations at 10/0.4 kV, and over 2,664 km of combined overhead and cable lines — and runs a Distribution Management Center headquartered at Trg Jovana Raskovića br. 6 in Trebinje.

Core product is the regulated distribution of electrical energy to residential, commercial, industrial, and public-sector end consumers. Underlying technology infrastructure includes a SCADA system being implemented for high-voltage network management and an Automatic Meter Management (AMM) system for remote meter reading and integration with SCADA. The company is publicly listed on the Banjalučka berza under ticker 'ekhc-r-a' and operates as a dependent enterprise within the state-owned MH ERS (Elektroprivreda Republike Srpske) group.

The business model is that of a regulated monopoly: revenue is generated through published tariff rates ('Tarifni stavovi i cijene') for distribution services, with no competitive distribution within the licensed area. Customer acquisition is conducted through service centers handling new connections and reconnection of disconnected measurement points, supported by a 24/7 toll-free info line (0800 56 767), planned-outage website notifications, and a free email bill-delivery service. Tariff pricing is regulator-set rather than market-determined, and the company exists within the broader MH ERS ecosystem alongside sister distribution utilities and generation affiliates.
