The caretaker government has instructed Deputy PM and Minister of Finance Lyudmila Petkova to submit, by 11 September, a proposal for amending the REpowerEU chapters of the recovery and resilience plan.
This is being done so as to make the completion and approval of the European Commission assessment possible by the end of 2024. In this way the finance minister will implement the parliamentary decision from 12 January, 2023, by force of which the government has to renegotiate the plan regarding reforms in the energy industry. The MPs then decided the requirement for a 40% reduction of carbon emissions by the end of 2025 must be renegotiated, taking 2019 as the basis. The National Assembly decision also sets down the renegotiation of the grant assistance for batteries, making it 50%, as well as the reassignment of 50% of the finding for geothermal energy set down in the plan towards energy-efficient housing renovation, the Bulgarian news agency BTA reports.
