Hotel owners in Bulgarian resort Sunny Beach are doing their best to limit electricity consumption without that interfering with their guests.

According to the chair of the union of hotel owners in the southern Bulgarian Black Sea resort Elena Ivanova, one should not overestimate the significance of the recent power cuts and disturbances in the electricity supply in the region.

Ivanova said that the great number of beds and the hot weather are among the reasons for the failures of the electricity network.

Saturday Central Dispatcher Unit of the Electricity System Operator (ESO), a state company monitoring power supply, ordered a power cut in the region north of Burgas just hours after the state-owned National Electric Company NEK denied the introduction of officially scheduled electricity supply restrictions.

Earlier this summer a failure in the electricity transmission system left the region north of Burgas with no electric power for more than 24h.
