Bulgaria reaps rewards of solar power as drought hits regional grids
Bulgaria is benefiting from its investment in solar power as drought reduces output from hydropower and strains electricity grids across the wider region. With water levels low affecting neighbouring countries' energy supplies, Bulgaria's growing solar capacity is helping keep power flowing, highlighting how renewable build-out can cushion countries against climate-related disruptions to traditional energy sources.
Why now: Drought conditions are straining hydropower-dependent regional grids, putting a spotlight on Bulgaria's solar success.
