The EU will invest EUR 33 million in Greece-Bulgaria gas link

EUR 33 million of EU funds will finance the construction of a 182-km cross-border gas interconnector between Komotini, Greece, and Stara Zagora, Bulgaria. The pipeline is a European Project of Common Interest, contributing to the objectives of the Energy Union. The two countries' gas systems will be linked for the first time, diversifying energy sources in the region and increasing energy security. With more competition on the gas market, consumers will enjoy lower prices.

The pipeline is a European project of common interest, contributing to the energy union objectives. Bulgaria is one of ten EU countries where the Commission will invest a total of EUR 4 billion in 25 large infrastructure projects.
