Kremen Georgiev, chairman of the Association of Heating Companies, has described a potential bankruptcy of the Sofia district heating provider, Toplofikatsiya Sofia, as a catastrophe. Speaking on the program "Bulgaria Morning," Georgiev warned that if the company fails, a mass transition by consumers to electric heating could overwhelm the electrical grid.

Potential Grid Failure

Georgiev stated that the electrical network might not be able to withstand the increased load if a large number of residents switch to electric heating as a result of the company's collapse. He noted, however, that if the company were to go bankrupt, the resulting problems might not be felt immediately by the public.
