A new record for AES Bulgaria: In 2022, the “St. Nikola” have produced the most electricity since their commissioning
The largest wind farm in Bulgaria provides green energy, sufficient to cover the annual consumption of 100 thousand Bulgarian households, which sustainably works for the greener energy future of our country
AES Bulgaria set a new production record. The company’s wind farm in Bulgaria – “Sveti Nikola” wind power plant, produced in 2022 the largest amount of electricity since it was put into operation in 2010. The 52 wind turbines of the largest wind farm in Bulgaria provide for Bulgarian consumers 356 056 MWh of green electricity. This is an increase of about 8% compared to the electricity produced in 2021 and is equal to the average annual consumption of nearly 100,000 Bulgarian households.
Only for the last month of 2022, the “Sveti Nikola” hydroelectric power plant increased nearly 35,000 MWh. This amount is equal to the average monthly consumption of households in the cities of Dobrich, Shumen and Razgrad, for example. Thus, once again, AES Bulgaria shows the sustainability in the trend of VyaECSveti Nikola to provide greener electricity consumption for households in North-Eastern Bulgaria.
VyaPP “St. Nikola” is the basis of the established Integrated Early Warning System for the protection of birds, which complies with the European requirements for the observance of wild birds. The integrated system minimizes the risk of bird collisions with the rotating parts of the wind generators, by stopping single, groups of turbines or entire wind plants, and implements a monitoring program during the risk periods for species of conservation importance. It is because of this and as a result of all the efforts of the wind farm investors in the Kaliakra region that at the end of last year the Standing Committee of the Berne Convention decided that the wind farms near Kaliakra are safe for the biodiversity of the area.
