Following a decision of Bulgaria’s National Assembly, the former head of the Energy and Water Regulatory Commission (EWRC) Ivan Ivanov will perform the duty of EWRC Chairman until the new chairman takes office. Ivan Ivanov has returned as an interim chairman of the energy watchdog, because the Constitutional Court found unconstitutional the election of Stanislav Todorov as chairman of EWRC.
