Programme: Local Development, Poverty Reduction and Enhanced Inclusion of Vulnerable Groups

Todor Georgiev is a registered farmer whose main activity is related to the cultivation of growing stock layers in livestock farm No BG 8800-0222 in the town of Sliven. The poultry farm is an enterprise with a continuous mode of operation and the continuity of the supply of electricity. Energy is critical. This project proposal is aimed at optimizing operating costs in combination with the protection of environmental components. In this regard, an autonomous solar system with a capacity of 49.61 kWp and a battery block of 50 kWh will be installed. The capacity of the plant is selected on the basis of an analysis prepared by a qualified person and is consistent with the electricity consumption of the poultry farm. The produced energy will be used only for own needs without returning energy to the grid. The commissioning of the photovoltaic system will improve the overall performance of the applicant by protecting the environmental components, including the reduction of harmful emissions emitted by conventional energy production. It is also envisaged to purchase a mini crawler loader with a rated power of 68 hp, Stage V emissions and a telematics system providing remote monitoring, diagnosis, monitoring of operations and generation of data exchange, designed to service the poultry farm. The telescopic wheel loader provided for purchase has the highest environmental class, which is a guarantee for reducing emissions from exhaust gases and therefore contributes to the protection of environmental components. The investments included in the project will contribute to the optimization of production processes and cost reduction on the farm combined with the protection of environmental components.
