Core Viewpoint - Bosnia and Herzegovina has failed to establish a carbon emissions management system and implement key mechanisms for carbon certificate taxation as required by the EU, leading to carbon tariffs on exports of high-carbon products starting January 1, which will significantly increase electricity production costs [1] Group 1: Carbon Emission Management - The EU's "Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism" (CBAM) initiated in 2023 requires non-EU countries to purchase emission certificates when exporting high-carbon products [1] - If Bosnia does not complete the necessary reforms, the EU will directly charge the certificate fees [1] - Establishing a carbon trading system could mitigate the losses from carbon taxes for Bosnia [1] Group 2: Legislative and Regulatory Requirements - The EU ambassador to Bosnia indicated that if Bosnia enacts the national "Electricity and Gas Law," establishes an emissions trading system, and implements EU energy market rules, it could delay the inclusion of the electricity sector in the EU CBAM until 2030 [1] - However, with less than two months until the deadline, the likelihood of completing these reforms is minimal [1] Group 3: Future Implications - The EU emphasizes the urgent need for Bosnia to establish a monitoring and verification system (MRV) and a national carbon trading system (ETS) to avoid higher production costs in the future [1] - If these measures are delayed, all high-carbon products exported to the EU will face systematic taxation starting in 2026 [1] - The failure to prepare in advance will result in increased energy costs being passed on to consumers, leading to further rises in electricity and other goods prices [1]
