Technical FAQs 4

How can Bulgaria shift away from Russian natural gas?

Basically, there are two ways for Bulgaria to shift away from Russian natural gas - building the interconnectors with Greece and Serbia and increasing the capacity of its Chiren underground gas storage facility. For a long time, both options have been declared "projects of national importance" that are critical to the country's energy security.

How much transmission capacity does Bulgaria have in 2022?

Bulgaria had 33,809MVA of capacity in 2022 and this is expected to rise to 34,547MVA by 2028. Listed below are the five largest transmission projects by capacity in Bulgaria, according to GlobalData’s power database. GlobalData uses proprietary data and analytics to provide a complete picture of the global transmission segment.

Is Bulgartransgaz building an interconnector with Serbia?

Building the interconnector with Serbia has not even started, and only this week gas transmission system operator Bulgartransgaz announced public tenders for the expansion of the Chiren gas storage facility.

Is Bulgaria a gas storage country?

In fact, Bulgaria is somewhat privileged in this regard, because, for example, Greece, Serbia and North Macedonia do not have their own storage facilities at all. Chiren was initially a gas field which was depleted in the 1960s and subsequently was turned into a gas storage.
