Summary/Abstract: There is one for now non-developed renewable energy source (RES). It is the energy of hydrogen sulfide dissolved in the deep waters of the Black Sea. Bulgaria could obtain additionally energy potential equivalent to 50 TWh due to the annual increase of hydrogen sulfide content. This amount is comparable to the annual energy consumption of Bulgaria. The technology may be of benefit not only Bulgaria and the Black Sea countries but for the entire Balkan Peninsula (currently heavily relying on lignite coal) and the EU.
