Optimistic data was shared by Viktor Andonov, energy adviser in the Government. He said that in February the production of electricity from state facilities was 80 percent higher than in February last year, and if you compare the first two months of the year with the same period last year, the increase is 50 percent.

- In February, 504.338 megawatt-hours of electricity were produced by ESM and TEC "Negotino", and in the same month in 2022, 280.353 megawatt-hours were produced, which means that the current production is 80 percent higher. In January and February, ESM and TEC "Negotino" produced 1.065.689 megawatt-hours of electricity, and last year in this period 714.362 megawatt-hours were produced, or now we have a growth of about 50 percent. Increased domestic production is in a constant growth trend and is key to mitigating the consequences of the economic crisis, as well as creating measures for vulnerable categories of citizens - Andonov said.
