“Because of the costly emission quotas, coal-fired thermal power plants may have to close down for economic reasons,” Minister of Environment and Water Borislav Sandov stated in Blagoevgrad.

Borislav Sandov added that Maritza Iztok-3 TPP in Dimitrovgrad will not resume work until the necessary air purification improvements are carried out.
