Not building Belene N-plant is the worst of options, reads a report of the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences (BAS) about the potential to carry out the project for a second Bulgarian NPP.
In parliament Energy Minister Temenuzhka Petkova recalled the BAS conclusion and argued that the project would be viable with a ratio of public to private funding at 70:30 percent and an interest rate at 4.5 percent.
