Deputy prime minister and economy, investment and industry minister Alexander Pulev and energy minister Petrova have presented a €2bn package of measures for industry, business and households.

The two unveiled it at the economy ministry after meeting employers' groups and trade unions.

Most of the money, €1.5bn, comes from the Electricity System Security Fund, and the Bulgarian Development Bank adds €500m. The package also includes €10m in aid for households that use natural gas for heating in winter.

Electricity and heating prices for households will not go up, the ministers said. Pulev said the measures will not weigh on the state budget and will help curb inflation.
