Slovenia's Petrol Wins in Bulgaria
Slovenia's energy firm Petrol has won a deal to improve a public heating system in Bulgaria's capital Sofia, which is the biggest heating system of its kind in the Balkans and the second biggest in Europe, Petrol said on Monday.
The aim is to reduce the cost of production and distribution of heating, improve supply quality, reduce energy loss and diversify production capacities, Petrol said in a statement. The company did not disclose the value of the deal.
Heating systems like the one in Sofia supply heat to apartments across the city from a single or a number of heating facilities.
Petrol has signed the deal with Toplofikacia Sofia E.A.D. which manages Sofia's heating system and is the largest company in Bulgaria.
