Czech independent power producer (IPP) Rezolv Energy has signed engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) contracts with three companies to build a 229MW solar PV project in Bulgaria.
Deals were signed with CMC Europe – a Hungary-based EPC contractor – and Bulgarian EPCs Solarpro and Green Solar Energy. CMC Europe and Solarpro will act as joint EPC contractors for the St. George project and Green Solar Energy will handle the high-voltage work connecting the site to Bulgaria''s transmission grid.
The St. George PV project will be built on the brownfield site of the former Silistra airport, in the northeast of Bulgaria. Rezolv said that the 229MW site will comprise around 400,000 solar modules and is expected to come online in 2025. When it announced the site back in July 2023, Rezolv said it would be the "largest" PV project in Bulgaria upon completion.
Alastair Hammond, CEO ofRezolv Energy, said: "St. George will be one of the largest solar projects in Bulgaria, so it was necessary to find the right blend of local experience and international expertise. We also needed partners with outstanding track records who shared our commitment to sustainability. CMC Europe, Solarpro and Green Solar Energy meet all of those requirements."
Rezolv was launched in 2022 by sustainable infrastructure investment platform Actis to focus on renewable energy developments in Central and Eastern Europe.
Rezolv said that it currently has over 2GW of renewable energy projects under development or construction across southeastern Europe.
The region at large has attracted increasing attention for solar development. Perhaps the most notable development was the €2 billion April deal between Greek energy company Mytilineos and European utility PPC Group to develop 2GW of solar PV assets across Romania, Bulgaria, Croatia and Italy.
In response to your feedback, we have upgraded our product offerings and features to bring you the best experience.
Actis-backed Rezolv Energy has selected three companies – CMC Europe, Solarpro and Green Solar Energy – to build the 229 MW ''St. George'' solar park in Silistra Municipality in Northeastern Bulgaria.

St. George will be built on the site of the former decommissioned Silistra airport.
Rezolv Energy has acquired the rights to build and operate a 229 MW solar plant in Silistra Municipality in north-eastern Bulgaria. Named ''St. George'', construction has started in Autumn 2024 and the plant is expected to be completed before the end of 2025. Once constructed, it will be one of the largest solar power plants in Bulgaria.
St. George will be built on the site of the former Silistra airport, a decommissioned airfield covering 165 hectares. The project will comprise nearly 400,000 solar panels. With an average annual power generation of 313 Gigawatt hours (GWh), it will produce a significant share of Bulgaria’s currently-installed solar capacity.
This report focuses on assessing the San George Solar''s environmental and social performance in alignment with the following key requirements:
Основната цел на тази оценка на въздействието върху околната и социалната среда (ESIA) е да оцени потенциалните екологични и социални въздействия, както положителни, така и отрицателни, свързани с планирането, изграждането и експлоатацията на фотоволтаичен парк Св. Георги.
Този доклад се фокусира върху оценката на екологичните и социалните резултати на ФеЦ Св. Георги в съответствие със следните ключови изисквания:
Environmental and Social Impact Assessment

Environmental and Social Management Plan
The plant will be connected to the main 110 kV transmission grid via two independent connection lines totalling about 6 kilometres in length. The power will be sold to commercial and industrial users through long-term Power Purchase Agreements.
The project will create a large number of new jobs in the construction phase. A significant number of employees will be hired, both for light assembly – which is work suitable for men and women, on both a full-time and part-time basis – and highly-skilled engineering roles. Longer term, the power plant will provide local employment for skilled and semi-skilled labour throughout the 30 plus years of operation.
