Japanese corporation Toshiba will open a regional representation in Bulgaria that will handle its operations in Central and Eastern Europe, the Middle East, and North Africa.

Bulgaria's Economy Minister Traicho Traikov met Friday in Sofia with senior Toshiba executives Osamu Tomita and Keizo Honda as part of a two-day conference in Sofia dedicated to the development of electric cars.
The Toshiba managers presented a new type of highly-sustainable batteries for various electric vehicles as well as Toshiba's latest products for solar energy and "smart electric grids."
The Toshiba management has confirmed that the company will construct a 10 MW photovoltaic park near Bulgaria's Yambol, an investment worth EUR 37.6 M that will provide electricity to 2000 households.
Another project of the Japanese corporation in Bulgaria will be a joint venture with still unspecified Bulgarian partner for the production and assembly of energy system inverters to be exported to the EU.

The wide-scale project that Toshiba has offered to the Bulgarian government focuses on the development of "smart grids" and the introduction of electric cars based on renewable energy sources.
