Bulgaria and Greece will soon sign a memorandum for the construction of the Alexandroupolis-Burgas oil pipeline, caretaker Minister of Energy Rosen Hristov said after the meeting with his Greek counterpart Kostas Skrekas. Rosen Hristov visited Greece where he attended the inauguration of a project for a gas-fired power plant in Alexandroupolis. The power plant, which is expected to become operational in 2026, will be able to supply Bulgaria and North Macedonia with electricity, experts said during the ceremony. 

The LNG terminal in Alexandroupolis, which is under construction, will supply the power plant with natural gas. Bulgaria has a 20% stake at the LNG terminal in Alexandroupolis and booked a capacity of 1 billion cubic meters of gas per year.
