By force of a Supreme Administrative Court ruling, the Ministry of the Environment and Water has been ordered to pay 25 million Leva (EUR 12.8 million) in compensation to the private thermal power station Brikel, which is connected with businessman Hristo Kovachev.
The court ruling cannot be appealed, Dnevnik writes. This means that the Supreme Administrative Court upholds the earlier judgement of the Administrative Court-Sofia from August 2020. The case concerns the ministry’s refusal, in 2012, to provide the TPP with greenhouse gas emission allowances, free of charge, from the New Entrants Reserve of the EU Emission Trading System.
