“Electricity and heating are not privileges, but necessities. In the 21st century, Bulgarian families should not have to wonder whether they will have a warm home, a functioning refrigerator, and electricity tomorrow. The state and the companies providing these services owe citizens security, quality, and accountability, not yet another excuse,” the Vazrazhdane party said in a statement on Monday.
Vazrazhdane also said that thousands of families have been left without heating and a reliable electricity supply. Once again, Bulgarian citizens have become hostages to failing infrastructure, irresponsible management, and institutions that are unable to guarantee even the most basic conditions for a normal life — electricity and heating, the party added.
The party cited the breakdowns affecting Sofia’s district heating company, Toplofikacia Sofia, which have left thousands of households without hot water and heating. It also highlighted the situation of families living in the Ramanusha villa area near Sliven, who experience frequent power outages, dangerously low voltage, and damage to household appliances.
“These are not merely technical failures and inconveniences. These are families who cannot heat their homes, parents who are worried about their children, elderly people, sick individuals, and citizens who pay their bills regularly but do not receive the services they are paying for,” the statement said.
Vazrazhdane further said that instead of presenting a viable recovery plan for Toplofikacia Sofia, whose debts exceed EUR 1.3 billion, a concession arrangement is being proposed as an inevitable solution.
In an official statement, Vazrazhdane – Sofia firmly opposed this approach. “A municipally owned company cannot be allowed to deteriorate into a severe financial and technical crisis, only for its problems to then be used as justification for transferring its management into private hands,” the party said.
Last week Sofia Mayor Vasil Terziev, Sofia Municipal Council (SMC) Chairperson Tsvetomir Petrov, and municipal councillors discussed the condition of Toplofikacia Sofia during a council meeting. The discussions aimed to find a way out of the situation affecting thousands of Sofia residents who have been left without hot water and heating due to breakdowns in the district heating network.
