| Solar power plant in Blagoevgrad is being sold for 11.5 million
A photovoltaic power plant built and connected to the grid in the Blagoevgrad region is being sold for 11.5 million euros, according to an ad posted on the website of the consulting company "SFB Capital Market". The project also includes a second plot of land, which allows for development in various directions according to the investor's wishes - from energy production to trade. The power plant is 4 kilometers from Blagoevgrad and has a capacity of 4.9 MWp. 8,750 panels have been installed on an area of ??56 decares, there are 98 inverters and 5 transformers. The free land is 55 decares, and it is considered agricultural land with the possibility of changing its purpose. The power plant was connected in the middle of this month and is ready for operation. According to the attached financial model, the investor can expect revenues of 1.2-1.5 million. BGN per year from the sale of up to 7,000 MWh of electricity on the free market at BGN 100-150,000 in maintenance costs. The buyer can invest in a second solar power plant with the same capacity on the free land, but other options are also offered: Installation of a battery system with a capacity of 5-10 MWh; Production base; Logistics center; Trade center; Data center; Charging station for heavy goods traffic along the Sofia - Thessaloniki corridor. According to estimates, when building a logistics or production base, solar energy will be sufficient not only for its consumption, but also for sale on the free market. This is just one (perhaps not the largest) solar project in Southwestern Bulgaria. The region has the most sunny days in our country, and winters are usually relatively mild. However, there are also dissatisfied people, since many of the plants are built on agricultural land. Source: money.bg (01.07.2025) |
