HOME / Bulgaria looking for wind power solar and energy storage projects
Bulgaria''s Ministry of Energy will finance 82 standalone renewable energy storage projects with a combined grant budget of BGN 1.154 billion (~$675 million) under the EU
The tender was launched last year, aiming to significantly increase the share of renewable energy, mainly wind and solar, in the country''s energy mix. It would also contribute
The BG-RRP-4.032 tender will support new solar and/or wind power projects with co-located energy storage facilities. A budget of BGN
The newly announced projects will help achieve this, providing an estimated 3 gigawatts of renewable energy and 1.2 gigawatts of energy storage.

This investment aims to expand the country''s energy infrastructure and support the growing share of intermittent renewable power, particularly from solar and wind.
One call is for solar and wind power projects of 200 kW to 2 MW each. The goal is to add 200 MW in combined capacity with at least 100 MW of battery energy storage
By increasing storage capacity, Bulgaria aims to better integrate clean energy sources, such as solar and wind, into its national energy system. This aligns with efforts to
The recent sharp increase in solar photovoltaic capacity and the expected increase of wind power capacity in Bulgaria will require a fast increase in energy storage facilities to
The Bulgarian government has been vigorously pursuing renewable energy initiatives in recent years. In May 2021, the country committed to phasing out coal by 2038 and
