* It is assumed 32% as Bulgarian energy efficiency average for fossil fuel conversion into electricity and 6500 hours illustrative for Bulgarian baseload plant.

** Total closing capacity of Kozloduy NPP is 1,760 MWe.

To date, the REECL financed projects have saved a total estimated electricity equivalent of 179 704 MWh per year, which is enough energy to heat water for 8 985 175 338 cups of tea or enough to drive a car over 269 555 260 kilometres.

To date, the REECL supported projects have brought reduction in CO2 emissions of 258 273 tonnes per year, which is equivalent to the amount of CO2 annually absorbed by a forest of 9 565 667 trees.
