According to the chairman of the Bulgarian energy regulator, Ivan Ivanov, the best option for Bulgarian coal-fired power plants, which are likely to be closed because of the new European environmental requirements, was to switch to gas.
"Literally, in the next few years, there will be alternative suppliers from southern direction and a competitive natural gas market in this country," he added during a round table on the topic of “Priorities of the Energy Sector in Bulgaria until 2050 - European Prospects and Strategic Risks."
Mr. Ivanov recalled that until 31 January 2018, the large thermal Maritza power plants in Bulgaria must submit applications for derogation to the European Commission.
