It means the project that is underway is set to add up to 12% to Bulgaria’s installed solar power capacity. The investor, Eurohold, bought ČEZ’s assets in the country in 2019 It said its employees started the works on the ground-mounted PV facility in September The location is in the Verila mountain range near Dupnitsa (Dupnica) Sunotec stressed that the nature of the terrain is the greatest challenge procurement and construction of the facility with 220,230 modules Lower temperatures contribute to solar power output “The location of the solar power plant at an altitude between 700 and 1,000 meters above sea level is one of the most adventurous and unique in Europe The lower temperatures caused by the high altitude contribute to the generation of additional power this also means that we have to adapt the machinery as well as the sequence of implementation to the challenging topography of the site,” said Sunotec’s Country Manager Valentin Gospodinov The project is one of seven that Sunotec is currently implementing in Bulgaria in the vicinity of the village of Kraynitsi The investment is worth more than EUR 100 million the Municipal Council of Dupnitsa agreed to sign a preliminary contract with Verila Solar Park 2 for a photovoltaic plant on a 236-hectare site on Kraynitsi territory Eurohold said it would install 50 MW and that the project is scheduled to be completed in 2024 It added that it is building two electricity substations and that they would be donated to the country’s Electricity System Operator (ESO) chief of the municipal parliament’s economic commission stressed that the two substations are worth a combined EUR 11.7 million He estimated that the investor’s donations to the municipality through infrastructure would be worth EUR 102,000 According to the International Renewable Energy Agency, Bulgaria had 1.2 GW in solar power capacity at the end of last year.

the 41st General Assembly Bulgaria's Supreme Court of Cassations ruled on July 16 that the Galevi trial is within the authority of the Kyustendil District Court The magistrates based their decision on the fact the alleged criminal acts have been executed in the area that is under the jurisdiction of the Kyustendil Court The representative of the Supreme Prosecutor's Office of Cassations argued that the Kyustendil Court was not competent to try the case and stated considerations of why it should be assigned to the Sofia's City Court mainly to assure a fair and objective rule Part of the charges include accusations that Galevi had racketeered cab drivers and bar owners in their town asking them to pay them cash in exchange for protection The main witness against Galevi is Plamen Milanov who claims the two have racketeered him to give them money each month Milanov told the media several times already that he was afraid of Galevi and is not optimistic about the trial's outcome It has been

"Galevi brothers" disappeared at the beginning of May after the Bulgarian Supreme Court of Cassation finally confirmed their organized crime sentences The two were supposed to be sent to jail for 5 and 4 years respectively Galev and Hristov were issued a nationwide search warrant amidst reports they fled abroad with a huge stash of money and strong criticism on the part of the European Commission The search of the Bulgarian authorities ended up with no result while in the meantime the executive and judiciary exchanged accusations for the blunder of letting the two mobsters get away The pair is well known to be top mafia lords impoverished and dilapidated Bulgarian town at the foot of the Rila mountain Bulgaria's Supreme Court of Cassations upheld Galevi's jail sentences issued by a lower instance reduced Galev's sentence by two years and Hristov's by one on grounds they have clean criminal records and are known for charitable activities Galev will thus serve 5 years behind bars while Hristov will be in jail for 4 years both on charges of participating in an organized crime group dealing with racket and extortion the Sofia Appellate Court surprisingly reversed the trial against Galevi sentencing them to a total of 12 years in jail - Plamen Galev to 7 years in prison Galev was sentenced to a fine of BGN 10 000 and confiscation of 1/3 of his properties and assets and confiscation of 1/4 of his properties and assets for the benefit of the state The two were appealing the sentence with the Supreme Court of Cassations the Regional Court in the southwestern city of

guards of Bulgaria’s notorious Galevi Brothers are alleged to have severely beaten a policeman from the southern city of Blagoevgrad Friday night The incident happened at a night club in the city when the police employee had tried to break a fight between patrons and had been thrashed in the melee The 30-year-old policeman is listed in a Sofia hospital with a broken jaw A police patrol had been immediately dispatched to the bar and managed to stop the fight The perpetrators are identified by the Blagoevgrad police as U No other people have been injured in the fight the two perpetrators are employed as security guards for Plamen Hristov and Angel Galev aka the Galevi Brothers The Interior had neither denied or confirmed the information Plamen Galev and Angel Hristov have been investigated over a long period of time for various crimes in Dupnitsa They are currently on trial for racketeering and organized crime Many witnesses in the case have already testified saying the Galevi security guards have threatened them at gunpoint told Darik radio he has nothing to do with the Blagoevgrad fight and does not know any of the people involved The participation of Plamen Galev and Angel Hristov in the summer elections highlighted the weakness of the country's judicial system one of the two men known as the Galevi brothers commonly referred to as “Galevi Brothers” despite that they are not of kin running and participating in a crime group engaged in racketeering and extortion Angel Hristov was sentenced to five years of imprisonment and Plamen Galev was sentenced to seven The sentences have been never served as the two managed to escape justice and went missing In 2012, Angel Hristov and Plamen Galev were circulated as wanted on an Interpol Red Notice it became clear that the body of Angel Hristov was found in a funeral agency but it is still unknown where his death occurred The death certificate was issued in the town of Dupnitsa but the private hospital there denied that Angel Hristov was admitted The caretaker Minister of Interior said the only way for Hristov to enter the country was by land The mystery surrounding the re-entry into the country and the death of Angel Hristov of the Galevi Brothers is unraveling Where his death occurred is the key question from today that has not been clearly answered officials of the Dupnitsa municipality claim that the announcement of the death of one of the Galevi brothers was issued by a private hospital in the town the hospital denies that he was admitted there a blocked coronary artery was the cause of Angel Hristov's death The time of the death coincides with the claims of the relatives The mystery entangles around how the funeral of the man wanted by Interpol was prepared BNT has learned from sources that Angel Hristov's body was found on the premises of a funeral agency The police received a signal about his death on Saturday afternoon it was found that there were death documents issued for Angel Hristov and the body was seized and sent for autopsy According to the official announcement of the Ministry of Interior the signal was that the 53-year-old man had died at his home in the village of Resilovo but according to claims by municipal officials the documentation shows that he died in a medical facility emergency medics from Dupnitsa received a call from the police around one o'clock in the morning It concerned the pick-up of Hristov's body from the area of the cemetery park in Dupnitsa BNT contacted the funeral services company hired to arrange Hristov's still pending funeral They refused to comment in front of the camera but explained that they only realised that it was one of the Galevi brothers after the police intervened 8.00 am was recorded as the date and time in Angel Hristov's death certificate The document was issued after an expired identity card and death notice were provided Ivan Rilski 2003" hospital that the death occurred at the hospital," explained Galina Palcheva the official who issued the death certificate She claims that the procedure was carried out as in every death case and she did not get the impression that someone was in a hurry to finish She noticed a discrepancy in the names of the documents submitted "The person's name was wrong and I returned the message asking to get the person's details corrected at the hospital The hospital had got confused that his name was Angel Hristov Hristov," Galina Palcheva said "The GRAO (Civil Registration and Administrative Services General Directorate) has no data on whether a person is circulated as wanted on an Interpol red notice," said Dragostina Kovačka denied having admitted a patient with that name The police also officially confirmed that a death notice had been issued by a doctor from a hospital in Dupnitsa the name of the hospital and the person who put the signature on the document were not reported another question continues to remain unanswered - how Angel Hristov entered the country "The only possibility is that he came to Bulgaria through land border There are two ways - either under relaxed checks or to cross the border illegally which is the second option," caretaker Minister of Interior it is possible that Hristov entered the country with forged documents One version is that he returned to Bulgaria for family reasons it is possible to have done so with a changed appearance He has not been in Bulgaria for many years and he may have arrived with forged documents," said Krasimir Zanev former director of the Ministry of Interior’s “Wanted Persons” department "We are checking all addresses related to the Galevi brothers and any physical evidence to see if the other one (Plamen Galev) is on Bulgarian territory," the minister said They have probably been ‘testing the water’ here because Angel Hristov has the shorter sentence and they were probably trying to see how the relevant authorities would react if he comes home," said Krassimir Zanev "The first question is how he got out of the country originally I don't know why we are ignoring this question because the “chairman of the committee on his passage out of the country” in 2012 was the then Prime Minister Boyko Borissov," Rumen Petkov There are many versions about how Angel Hristov returned to Bulgaria but what’s the truth - the ball is in the investigators' court commonly referred to as “Galevi Brothers” were former officials of the Ministry of Interior they used to work for the Specialised Counter-Terrorism Squad and the National Service for Combating Organised Crime They left the police in 1998 and set up a number of businesses Galevi Brothers were widely considered as the most successful businessmen in Dupnitsa with a lot of influence and control over the economic and political life of the town but their participation in the campaign resulted in temporary suspension of proceedings against them because as MP nominees they enjoyed immunity from prosecution during parliamentary elections campaign charged with the crimes they were later convicted of Plamen Galev and Angel Hristov were charged with setting up an organised crime group involved in racketeering and extortion the district court in Kyustendil acquitted them but that decision was later (in 2011) reversed by Sofia Appellate Court and they were found guilty and sentenced the Supreme Court of Cassation upheld that decision they fled the country before serving their sentences The construction of the Rila highway in Bulgaria about which various successive governments have been talking for years stated this during an event called "Cities - a meeting with the businesses of the Sofia region" the realization of the project will have a huge impact on the Sofia region This will be the transformational project for the region because it will improve the movement of people and goods," said Tsekov funds have been set aside for updating the conceptual project a detailed layout plan and other design activities environmental procedures and a technical design will be performed We remind you that the construction of the Rila highway will make it possible to unite the three existing Bulgarian highways - Struma and the idea for its creation dates back more than 20 years the Balkan Transport and Infrastructure Forum stated that the planned highway would actually extend to 140 km even then it was estimated to cost almost EUR 500 million - now that amount would be significantly larger the Bulgarian Road Infrastructure Agency (API) launched a tender for the design of a Gyueshevo – Dupnitsa highway and thus took the first real steps towards the realization of the project The 62-kilometre road stretch in question would form part of the somewhat forgotten Rila highway project The initial idea of the regional development ministry was for the section to be a high-speed expressway API studied the conceptual proposal designs submitted for the tender the price tags of said proposals were only revealed on 16 March 2023 – that is 7 months later The beneficiary was picked on 3 July of this year Via - Plan EOOD was chosen with a price offer of about EUR 1 million The deadline for developing the conceptual project is 150 calendar days from the date of conclusion of the contract and includes only the design time according to information in the Public Procurement Register the chairman of the Forum for Balkan Transport and Infrastructure commented that API should now design the entire road and not just 62 kilometres of it API launched a tender for a road safety impact assessment of the Rila highway and a cost-benefit analysis for its construction Some of the main characteristics of the highway are also listed in the documentation attached to the tender The road will be 89 km long and will pass through the territories of Sofia and Kyustendil regions The project previews the construction of 54 large auxiliary facilities 4 tunnels with a total length of 1600 m and 9 road junctions the differing accounts on the highway’s planned length come from the fact that it will be divided into two lots: Gyueshevo (border checkpoint with North Macedonia) - Dupnitsa and Dupnitsa - Trakia highway The technical specifications state that the road will be built as an expressway with a designated speed limit of 120 km/h - A25.5 gauge There is an exception only for a small section which will be A29 gauge (motorway) - between the Samokov and Bogoriditsa junctions Foreign Minister Georg Georgiev has left for Washington where he will participate

Cassations ruled Thursday that the trial of the notorious Galevi Brothers is within the authority of the Kyustendil District Court The three magistrates based their decision on the fact the alleged criminal acts have been executed in the area under the jurisdiction of the Kyustendil Court Bulgaria's Supreme Court of Cassations' rule is final and cannot be appealed They failed to win seats in the

the Sunrise project – Households producing household energy from the sun with the support of Habitat Bulgaria and the municipality of Dupnitsa The goal is for households living in social poverty Another advantage is environmental protection The practice of placing solar panels on residential balconies is now firmly established in Germany the first installation was installed precisely by German experts from the German Solar Energy Society (DGS) the number of installed photovoltaic micro systems will reach 1 million units Each panel has a power of nearly 450 watts as well as vertically on the facade of residential blocks „The main advantage of the panels in question is that a person can install them himself photovoltaic project engineer from the German Solar Energy Society (DGS) during a presentation of the system in the municipality of Dupnica In Germany the system is called Plug-in PV This is a small photovoltaic installation that is placed on the terrace It consists of several solar panels (usually two) that transform sunlight into direct current energy The energy inverter turns direct current into alternating current from where it enters the energy network of the home itself and the household begins to consume electricity from the photovoltaic system the law allows one electricity meter (one dwelling) to install one system with a power that does not exceed 800 watts The goal for the cap is to produce roughly as much electricity as a household consumes the system also allows the attachment of a battery to save the energy accumulated by the sun and be consumed „Initially in Germany we called these photovoltaic systems „guerrilla” The reason is that there was no established legal framework and corresponding forms for registering this type of installations the systems were used to stimulate the responsible institutions to adapt the legislation so that people could use cheap energy,“ explains Johan Using the system is the first step on the way to a climate neutral household and the transition from carbon fuels to renewable clean energies The system contributes to the transition from fossil fuels to clean energy sources as an inhabitant of the particular building may not have your own roof and may not have enough space to make such a system you can produce clean energy,” adds Johan the system helps to reduce and overcome energy poverty by saving household costs „This type of system cannot replace large photovoltaic and wind installations They are only for use in the respective household” the first photovoltaic system on a balcony was installed in a municipal housing in Dupnitsa The reason for this is primarily the lack of a legal framework and the still unregulated legal path it is easy to install such systems on private houses but this is not the case for multi-family residential buildings who decides to put such a system on his balcony to have the consent of 51% of the owners of the building Permission from the energy company serving the building is also required Habitat Bulgaria has already several times raised the issue of easing the legal environment regarding the placement of solar panels on balconies but there has never been a reaction from the state You can see detailed statistics on average property prices in Bulgaria by cities and neighborhoods HERE More news from Properties
