Employers, trade unions and citizens have staged protests demanding immediate compensations for the high electricity prices. The protesters blocked traffic in central Sofia.
The electricity price on the independent energy exchange hit record highs- EUR 240 per MWh. Bulgaria’s business, as well as all non-household consumers such as schools, kindergartens and hospitals pay high electricity prices.
