The Bulgarian Development Bank will help companies over unexpected increases in electricity prices, Minister of Innovation and Growth Daniel Lorer said. For this purpose, loans of up to 100,000 euros will be granted to small and medium-sized enterprises for a period of 4 months. The amount of financing will be determined according to the net value (after deducting the compensation from the state) of the invoices for consumed electricity for January-December 2022, as the bank can cover up to 75% of the value of the invoice. The Minister expressed hope that electricity bills for businesses would fall in the spring.
