Another protest by miners and energy workers from the “Maritsa East” complex. They again organized a motorcade, reaching the Stara Zagora exit and blocking the road to the "Trakiya" highway, to Dimitrovgrad, and to Haskovo, BTV reported.
They oppose green politics and as a result of their protests, steps are being taken towards meeting their demands.
A bill was submitted to the energy commission to postpone the liberalization of the electricity market for 1 year. The main reasons are that there is still no readiness for the full opening of the market, although it should have happened almost 10 years ago.
Thus, the deadline has shifted from July 1, 2024 to July 1, 2025. This means that on July 1, KEVR will again have to rule on the price of household electricity at regulated prices.
The bill is expected to be considered by the committee today, April 18, and to enter the plenary hall tomorrow.
However, not all of their demands have been met. There is a possibility of a motorcade tomorrow as well, but this time directed towards the capital.
