The Chairman of the Bulgarian Industrial Association Dobri Mitev and the President of the Bulgarian Industrial Capital Association Vasil Velev told the media that a compensation cap amounting to 127.82 EUR per megawatt has been agreed for January. It will be funded by the exessive profits of the state energy companies.
