That is why, as stated, Energoinvest recalculated the cost and price of natural gas for tariff customers approved by the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina (FBiH) Government. The request for the correction of the price of natural gas was submitted to the Government of the FBiH yesterday, and the percentage increase in the price of gas would be 4.96% compared to the price from the previous quarter.
