The Bulgarian State Energy and Water Regulatory Commission (SEWRC – DKEVR) has published on its website a proposal to lower the country’s solar feed-in tariff rates.  

Photovoltaic installations under 5kWp will receive 3.7% cuts to the incentive they receive–a proposed reduction from €420/MWh (BGN823) to €405/MWh (BGN793). Larger systems are also likely to be affected by a 3.58% decrease.
