Bulgaria is working together with the EU on the topic related to the future of Bulgaria’s coal industry, this country’s Minister of Energy Temenuzhka Petkova said at a round table in Sofia dedicated to the coal regions in transition. Bulgaria is a net exporter of electricity in a region where other countries are not in the same position and rely on electricity supplies from this country.
