The interconnector will secure access to the Southern Gas Corridor, through which Bulgaria and the Southern European region can gain access to natural gas from Caspian region, existing and future gas terminals and other gas sources. The interconnector Greece-Bulgaria is also strategic for the realization of the concept of a Bulgarian gas hub. The IGB project is selected as one of the top priority project of the European Union.
