SOFIA (Reuters) - Japan's Toshiba Corp will carry out a feasibility study for the possible construction of a coal-fired thermal power plant with carbon capture and storage (CCS) facilities in Bulgaria, the company said on Tuesday.

The project is part of the efforts of the European Union member state to boost energy efficiency and reduce greenhouse gases in line with the block's climate change policies.

Thermal power utilities account for some 50 percent of electricity generation in the Balkan country.
