Bulgaria wants concreteness from the European Commission on energy security measures through electricity savings. The country has its own goals for diversifying energy sources and ensuring stability, Energy Minister Rosen Hristov said in Varna. He attended the opening of the academic year at the Professional High School of Construction and Architecture, of which he is a graduate.

"Gazprom is not a closed page, but there is no significant progress in the negotiations and we will manage without them", said Hristov.

Hristov expects lower gas prices in November by nearly 10%. If you compare the prices for September and October with the deliveries that we have agreed, the difference is significant, a 30% reduction, the minister emphasized.
