GENERAL MANAGER’S REPORT

Elektroprivreda Hrvatske zajednice Herceg Bosne, d.d. Mostar, a public company for power generation, distribution and supply was founded on August 28, 1992 and since it has operated in 6 cantons in the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina. It is one of three power companies in Bosnia and Herzegovina and since April, 2004 it has been a joint stock company. The stock capital of the Company consists of 10% private capital and 90% state capital.

The Company operates six hydro power plants ( Rama, Mostar, Jajce I, Jajce II, Peć Mlini and Čapljina) with the total capacity of 792 MW. The total power generation in 2008 was 1355,64 GWh.

The total length of the distribution network is 11,131 km. On Decem-ber 31, 2008, EP HZ HB supplied 183,706 customers, including Aluminij d.d. Mostar company as the biggest customer in Bosnia and Herzegovina, and had 1729 employees.

In 2008, in spite of many problems and the business environment burdened with evident consequences of the economic crisis, the Company operated at a gross profit of BAM 7,333,131. The following contributed to good operating results: proper power system control, orientation to loss minimization and collection rate increase, conclusion of flexible contracts with customers and suppliers of electricity with risk sharing, good business relations with customers, control of operating costs and good human reso-urces management. The application of new tariffs according to the FERC’s decision on tariffs for non-eligible (tariff) customers and the planned re-duction of delivery to the 100 kV and higher level customers also had a positive influence on the Company performance.

As the strategic objective of the Company is construction of new gene-ration facilities, the year 2008 was marked by continuation of the work on construction of the HPP Mostarsko Blato. Installation of the mechani-cal and electrical equipment (turbines-generators) and other equipment started in the already constructed facilities. Preparation of the design and

tender documents continued for the projects approved through the POWER 4 program for the HPP Rama and PSPP Čapljina. For better efficiency, minor repair work and other activities were carried out in these plants and in the HPPs Jajce I and Jajce II.

For the projects of use of hydro energy, preparation of the feasibility study started and the research work was carried out for the small hydro power plants Kravice, Stubica, Dubrava and Luke. The pre-feasibility study was prepared for the HPP Han Skela and the hydro power plants on the Ugar River. For the PSPP Vrilo, preparation of the feasibility study started and the tender documents for the research work were prepared. For the projects of use of wind energy, we started activities on preparation of a


For further adjustment to the requirements of the modern business operations, all necessary preparations for production of the Financial Ma-nagement Information System (FMIS) were made. The system will signifi-cantly modernize the financial management of the Company as a whole as well as of its organizational units. By implementation of this project, JP Elektroprivreda HZHB will be the first power company in the region to improve its business operations by integrating the processes of purchasing, selling, materials management, finance, controlling and fixed assets in a single, transparent and unified system.

For permanent improvement of the control of all business processes in the Company, we continued the activities on introducing the quality control system according to ISO 9001:2008 as well as on investment in human re-sources of the Company through awarding scholarships, employment and professional improvement.

comprehensive environmental and social impact assessment and of the general design for the 20/110 kV substations for the wind farms Borova Glava, Mesihovina and Velika Vlajna. The activities on issuing the buil-ding permits and solving the problem of property-rights relations were intensified.

We carried out the internal review of the report on the detailed ge-ological research in the Kongora Lignite Deposit and started activities for preparation of the study for recognition of the reserves by the competent cantonal ministry.

Regular maintenance of the distribution network and facilities, and continuous investment of our own and credit funds in the distribution network improved the quality of electricity supply. The feasibility study for establishing the modern SCADA/DMS system of operation in the Power Distribution Division was prepared since we try to bring the distribution network and its operation as well as the supply quality to the level as requ-ired by the EU Directive. Supply to all customers was safe and reliable and establishment and implementation of the new information systems incre-ased the collection rate.

In the period January – December 2008, JP “Elektroprivreda HZ Herceg-Bosne” d.d. Mostar operated at a gross profit of BAM 7,333,131.

As Aluminij d.d. Mostar also purchased electricity from other suppliers (HEP, EP BiH, Aluminij as an eligible customer), an adverse effect of the difference between the purchase and selling price according to tariffs was eliminated.

2007 2008


In order to have our own development program and meet the demands of our customers, we launched development projects having in mind the electricity demand up to 2023.

Our development is based on: - Use of wind energy - Use of hydro energy - Kongora lignite mine and thermal power plant

In addition, the preparations are made for the project of use of solar energy and we have to consider the place and role of EP HZHB in the pro-jects of gasification in this area.

According to the strategic plan and program for BiH energy, the develo-pment projects of EP HZHB are included in the top-priority projects in BiH.

USE Of WiND ENERGy

After the activities on research and development that started in 2004, three wind farm projects are ready for implementation: Borova Glava - Livno (26 wind turbines x 2 MW), Mesihovina - Tomislavgrad (22 x 2 MW) and Velika Vlajna - Mostar (16 x 2 MW). The foreseen annual output in these wind farms is 370 MWh.

In 2008, we started preparation of the general design for the 20/110 kV substations for the wind farms Borova Glava, Mesihovina (Tomislavgrad Municipality) and Velika Vlajna. For these substations, the research work was carried out, research reports were prepared and preliminary design was prepared and reviewed. The activities on issuing of the building per-mits for the first three wind farms were intensified.

Within the bilateral cooperation between the Federal Republic of Ger-many and BiH, the German Development Bank (KfW) indicated its willin-gness to finance construction of the wind farm Mesihovina with a possibi-lity of extension of the cooperation to other projects. The Loan Agreement

for construction of the wind farm Mesihovina was concluded between the Government of the Federal Republic of Germany and the Council of Mini-sters of BiH. The funds would be available in 2009.

Before providing the credit funds for construction of the wind farm Mesihovina, KfW provided a grant for preparation of the feasibility study that confirmed a possibility of use of wind energy in three sites: Mesiho-vina, Borova Glava and Velika Vlajna. KfW accepted the study in October, 2008. The Development Department of EP HZHB gave the technical support for preparation of the study and reviewed it. We started the activities on preparation of a comprehensive environmental and social impact asses-sment also financed out of the grant funds provided by KfW.

Similar arrangements were negotiated with other potential financiers and significant progress was made in the field of cooperation with some financial institutions (EIB, EBRD, WB).

USE Of HyDRO ENERGy

Elektroprivreda HZHB d.d. Mostar works on the projects of research and de-velopment of small, pumped storage and conventional hydro power plants in the Neretva, Tihaljina – Mlade – Trebižat (T-M-T), Lištica, Upper Cetina and Vrbas river basins. The total installed capacity of these plants will be about 213 MW and annual output about 546 GWh. The Development Department prepared the study “Hydro Power Solutions in Neretva River Basin down-stream of HPP Mostar” and after that the Faculty of Civil Engineering of Mostar University prepared the pre-feasibility study for the HPP Skakala.

In the T-M-T and Lištica river basins, the research work was carried out and the research reports were prepared for the small hydro power plants Kravice, Stubica, Dubrava, Luke and Fratarska. The studies of alternatives were prepared for the stated small hydro power plants in the T-M-T and Lištica river basins.

DEvELOPMENT PROJECTS


In the Vrbas river basin, the study “Hydro Power Plants on Ugar Ri-ver” for three plants: Ugar Ušće, Ivik and Vrletna Kosa was prepared and reviewed. For the HPP Bravnice (Han Skela) on the Vrbas river, the tender documents were prepared and the procedure for public procurement of the service of the design preparation was carried out.

In the Upper Cetina river basin, the research program was prepared within the preparation of the feasibility study for the PSPP Vrilo. Based on this program, the Financing Agreement for the project implementation was signed between KfW and JP EP HZHB.

The European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) finan-ces the study “Strategic Environmental Assessment of Trebižat and Cetina River Basins” to be prepared in accordance with the EU directives (Directive 2001/42/EC) and appropriate documents. The Draft Final Report was pre-pared and we started the activities for carrying out of public consultations.

kONGORA LiGNiTE MiNE AND THERMAL POWER PLANT

In the period 2007 -2008, JP Elektroprivreda HZHB d.d. Mostar carried out the detailed geological research in the Kongora Lignite Deposit in To-mislavgrad.

This research supplemented the previous research. In 2008, the fo-llowing documents were prepared: Report on Research Drilling and Exca-vation, Study on Coal Quality and Study on Geomechanical and Laboratory Testing of Physical-Mechanical Features of Coal and Accompanyng Seams. Preparation of the Study on Kongora Lignite Deposit Classification, Catego-rization and Estimate of Reserves was started.

The results of the geomechanical testing and hydrogeological research prove that this deposit is suitable for surface extraction with application of the latest technologies. The obtained results confirm the assumptions. In some important parameters (weighted lower heating value, total sulphu-re and total balance reserves) they are even better than the assumption. It enables continuation of preparation of the designs and studies for the Kongora Lignite Mine and Thermal Power Plant.

We started preparation of the hydrogeological study for the Kongora

Deposit. Preparations were started for the analysis of the level of explorati-on for coal in the rest of Herceg Bosnia Canton.

GiS PROJECT

The official cadastral plans and maps M 1:2500 and 5000 were vectorized for the project of the PSPP Vrilo. The usufruct data base was made for the projects of the wind farms Mesihovina, Borova Glava and Velika Vlajna, and the small hydro power plants Kravice, Stubica, Dubrava, Luke and Fra-tarska. The 3 D models were created for making of complex geoanalyses, automatic calculation of surface and cubic volume within the given area, automatic profile generation etc. on the basis of the created network 3D models in the GIS tool environment.

In 2008, a share of the Power Distribution Division in the total investment of the Company was 35.5%

The network and facilities are operated conventionally through five dispatch centers in the headquarters of the distribution areas units and sections.

The modern SCADA/DMS system of operation is planned to be esta-blished soon.The feasibility study was prepared in 2008.

In 2008, there were 8,346 power connection applications out of whi-ch 8,091 were approved.

TELECOMMUNiCATiONS AND COMPUTER NETWORk

As late as 2005, establishment of the connection system through HT was

completed. This enabled closing and connecting of the distribution busine-ss system. Using the established computer network, the work of users was organized and connection to Internet was made. Internet access is contro-lled through the ISA server and antivirus protection is ensured through the system.

In 2008, the computer equipment was procured and development of the computer networks continued.

We started preparation of the telecommunication infrastructure pro-ject of installation of optic cables between the 110/xkV substations and office buildings. This would enabled closing of the telecommunications system through OPGW cables.

METERiNG iN POWER SySTEM

At the points of electricity acceptance from TRANSCO, meters are installed by TRANSCO. At the 0.4 and 10 kV points of electricity acceptance between power companies, meters are installed by the Power Distribution Division in cooperation with the Power Supply Division. Meters are installed and electricity and power are metered in all points.

Activities on installation of control meters started. This project is finan-ced out of the EBRD credit funds and also includes construction of the dis-tribution metering center in Mostar. This is a very important project because its implementation will make it possible for us to have exact data on losses in the MV network and locate losses in the LV network.

In 2008, the total power generation in the hydro power plants operated by our Company was 1355.64 GWh or 88.7% of the plan.

Power generation in all hydro power plants except in the HPP Mostar was lower than the plan due to unfavourable hydrological circumstances.

The total power consumption (2,432.04 GWh) was higher than the plan (107.4%).

The losses at the distribution voltage levels of 15.62% were still higher than the plan (13.77%) but lower than in the previous year (16.63%).

The collection rate was 97.83%. It was at the level of the plan (97%). Achievement of the planned collection rate had a positive influence on the Company liquidity. All liquidity ratios – ratios of current liquidity, day-to-day liquidity, accelerated liquidity and financial stability were within the scope of the plan and better than in 2007.

In the period January – December 2008, the planned investment amo-unted to BAM 144,943,321 and realized investment BAM 72,591,576 or 50%.

As a result of the good Company performance in 2008, the profitability ratios – gross profit margin, ROA (return on assets), ROE (return on equity), ROI(return on investment), EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreci-ation and amortization) and EBIT (earnings before interest and taxes) were better than in the previous year.

The investment indicators – labour productivity and EPS (earnings per share) were better than in 2007.

The economic indicators - coefficients of economy of all business ac-tivities, and operating and working factors were better than in 2007 and were at the level of reference values except the coefficient of economy of financing that was below the reference value since the financial expenses (interest on loans from the previous years) were higher than the financial income (return interest and positive exchange rate differences).

After evaluation of the Company’s performance in 2008, the Mana-gement Board set the following tasks to be carried out in the following period:

- Electricity loss minimization and collection rate increase through implementation of the project of remote reading and consump-tion control for theft prevention and proper control of the power distribution system

- Conclusion of flexible contracts with customers and suppliers of electricity with delivery risk sharing

- Cultivation of good business relations with all customers for joint planning of the future services

- Safe and reliable supply to customers at all voltage levels - Control of operating expenses in all business activities - Successful human resources management in the Company
