Environmentalists and local residents are opposing a EUR 450 million solar park project in Suhindol, Bulgaria, citing concerns over land use and environmental impact. The project, proposed by Wabi-Sabi Alpha of the Green Source group, would take up 11% of arable land and 40% of pastures in the municipality.

A court has suspended preliminary work on the site following complaints from environmental groups. The project aims to build the largest photovoltaic facility in Bulgaria with 500 MW capacity and 1 GWh battery storage.
