January 6 (SeeNews) - AES Bulgaria, a unit of U.S. energy conglomerate AES Corporation, said on Friday that its thermal power plant (TPP) AES Galabovo generated over 3.56 million MWh of electricity in 2022 - an all-time high output figure.
That was 8% more than what the lignite-fired coal plant produced in 2021, AES Bulgaria said in a press release.
The plant's output covered over 9% of Bulgaria's electricity consumption last year.
In December alone, AES Galabovo TPP provided over 310,263 MWh of electricity, which was enough to meet the average monthly needs of around 1 million households.
