| Renewable energy sources
The promotion of renewable energy sources (RES) as part of the harmonization of the Bulgarian legislation with the Community legislation is regulated in the Law on the Energy. Mechanisms to promote the use of RES comprise preferential prices for purchase of energy generated from RES and using combined technologies.
An important element of the policy of Bulgaria regarding the promotion of RES is the promotion of increased use of biomass and liquid bio-fuels. Other areas of interest include the construction of hydroelectric power plants and the use of wind and geothermal energy. It is envisaged that the percentage of hydroelectric power stations in the overall energy consumption will reach indicatively 10-11% in 2010. A National Long-term Programme on Promotion of Renewable Energy Sources 2005-2015 is in a process of development whose aspects and forecasts related to climate change have been considered in the development of the NAP.
