The energy watchdog, the State Energy and Water Regulatory Commission (SEWRC), has already considered the company’s application to determine the tariffs at which it will supply electricity to E.ON Bulgaria, the local unit of the German mega-utility. It should come up with a decision at its Monday session. The two facilities now run at 50% of their nameplate capacity. The company’s chief energy expert, Danail Tsvetanov, said that they need 50 cubic metres of gas per hour to operate at 75% of their capacity, adding that the co-generation cost is factored in the proposed prices. The company uses the produced thermal energy to meet its own needs.

The power produced from co-generated capacities comes with higher prices, which is based on 80% of the average selling price for power distributors. Yovkovtsi has request a tariff of BGN 132 per MWh.
