While Toplofikacia Sofia is still at the level of ecological permits for the construction of installation for incineration of Sofia garbage (into RDF briquettes) and waits for European funding, TPP Bobov Dol, associated with Hristo Kovachki, makes confident steps in this direction. In mid-February the Regional Inspectorate of Environment and Water (RIEW) in Pernik came up with a decision that the investment intention of TPP Bobov Dol for expansion of production activity through the use of non-hazardous waste together with the primary fuel coal will not have significant negative impact on the environment. The decision makes it clear that TPP Bobov Dol intends to burn waste from clothing, footwear and wood processing industries, as well as RDF fuel. Switching to alternative fuel has been also provided in TPP Ruse, Toplofikacia Burgas and so far unsuccessful attempted at TPP Brikel.
