The protest of the workers from TPP "Maritsa 3" must be in front of their employer, because he has violated environmental standards.

The same owner had closed the plant and then launched it when the price of electricity rose.

This was said by Minister Borislav Sandov

He graduated from Sofia University "St.

Kliment Ohridski, specialty "Geography", and is on the occasion of the closure of TPP "Maritsa 3" and the protests of workers in the studio of "The Day Begins" on BNT.

According to him, the sanctions on the company will not lead to unemployment in Dimitrovgrad, because there are about 500 vacancies in the region.

He was adamant that there was air pollution from the sulfur dioxide plant: “There is a building with a boiler room.

She smokes all over because she is from many decades ago.

Through the chimney we measure what the building emits.

But the pollution is detected by a station in the city center.

"People cannot be held hostage by the enterprise."

Sandov explained that such violations exist in the entire Maritsa basin.

For this reason, there may be sanctions for other companies in the area: "If they exceed specific data, we must take action."

According to him, one should not switch to fuel oil, because gas supplies are ensured: "The production of electricity from gas is very low.

The problem of Toplofikacia Sofia is in the obligations.

I would suggest looking for real alternatives - solar energy, as well as mineral water to heat the water that flows through the pipes of Sofia.

"To burn the fuel oil of Toplofikatsiya means very serious consequences for the people of Sofia", he was categorical.

The Minister said that shale gas production could happen in about 5 years: “These are not real opportunities but Bulgaria.

The case is being used to bring back lobbying interests. "

Sandov called the idea of ​​opening a coal mine in Slivnitsa absurd: "As long as I am a minister, I would not open a new coal mine."

He pointed out as a reason that our country should give up coal and not open new such enterprises.

I have allowed the release of the Studena Dam in Pernik.

We want to ensure that there is enough water for the whole year for the area.

No drought is expected anywhere, "he said.
