28 July 2010
AES Corp., the U.S. power producer with operations in more than two dozen countries, is keen on constructing in Bulgaria a USD 400 M solar power plant with a capacity of 80 megawatts, the American ambassador in Sofia announced.

"AES has been waiting for six months to go ahead with its investment, which costs nothing to the Bulgarian government," US Ambassador to Bulgaria, James Warlick, said a joint press conference with representatives of AES Solar Energy.
