Abstract

  • Institutions & Energy Policy

    The Ministry of Energy oversees the country's energy policy.

    The Energy and Water Regulatory Commission (EWRC) regulates the energy sector, including some energy prices (gas, electricity, water and district heating). It also approves the construction of gas and oil pipelines.

    Its independence was strengthened by an amendment to the Bulgarian Energy Law in March 2015.

  • Energy Companies

    Oil:

    Lukoil operates the sole refinery in the country, the 10 Mt/year Burgas refinery (7 Mt/available and 2.8 Mt not used), which produced 5.7 Mt of oil products in 2018. The group is considering selling the refinery.

  • Energy Supply

    Gas:

    Natural gas production is negligible and accounts for less than 1% of the domestic supply (2018).

  • Energy Prices

    Gas:

    Gas prices soared between 2004 and 2012, with residential prices doubling and industrial prices almost tripling (+178%). In 2012, massive protests led to successive price cuts: between 2012 and 2016, residential prices decreased by 34%, while industrial prices fell by 41%. Prices have been increasing since then (+9.7%/year for households and +13%/year for industry between 2016 and 2019).

  • Energy Consumption

    Consumption per capita is 2.6 toe (16% lower than the EU average in 2018), with electricity accounting for about 4 400 kWh in 2018 (22% below the EU average).

    Total energy consumption has been fluctuating around 18-19 Mt since 2014 (18 Mt in 2018, 2.5% less than in 2017). It had contracted by 2.7%/year between 2006 and 2013 (from 20 Mtoe to less than 17 Mtoe).

  • Issues & Prospects

    Gas:

    Bulgaria intends to increase the use of gas in order to reduce coal and oil consumption in district heating, thereby meeting strict environmental requirements and improving energy efficiency.
