In order to provide a continuous supply of energy to consumers and ensure the standard of living of people in the transition period until 2050, it is necessary to develop improved or new technologies based on fossil fuels, with an increase in energy efficiency (saving and rational use of energy, reduction of distribution and other losses), as well as an increase in the share of production of useful forms of energy from renewable sources, with further encouragement of the development of co-generative and trigenerative systems. Strategic plans and programs for the use of renewable sources are being created, as well as directions for eliminating the main shortcomings of conventional power plants. The concept of planning “energy for the future” under the influence of various lobby groups can often lead to the creation of false perceptions or illusions. Some of them are analyzed within the framework of this paper. Within this paper, an analysis of the state and perspective of the use of some of these technologies in the territory of the Republic of Srpska as an entity within Bosnia and Herzegovina is given. Special emphasis is given to the segment of planning energy sources for a sustainable future in the light of the energy transition and liberalization of the energy market in Bosnia and Herzegovina. A special segment is devoted to the analysis of legal legislation in the field of energy in the Republic of Srpska and Bosnia and Herzegovina as a whole. At the end of the paper, a presentation of concrete goals until 2030 for the activity of electricity production at the level of MH Elektroprivreda Republika Srpska is given.
