Thanks to the Recovery and Resilience Plan, 953 companies that meet the requirements will receive assistance under the "Technological Modernization" line. The funds will be available in March. This is what the Minister of Innovation and Growth, Alexander Pulev, told the BNR.

According to one of the procedures under the Plan, small and medium-sized enterprises will be able to receive a subsidy of up to 50% for their own RES installation plus accompanying infrastructure. The procedure is expected to start in February. The idea is for small and medium-sized businesses to achieve energy security for their own needs. The budget is about 100 million euros. The actual implementation of the projects will start after the middle of the year.
