About us

Long Man Holding is a Bulgarian company specializing in the development of RES projects, a service provider in the RES sector and the only Bulgarian independent operator providing technical and commercial management of wind farms. The company is notable on the Bulgarian RES market for its complete or partial participation in completed projects coming to 380MW and 550MW of projects still under development. It is the owner of 6 wind farms and a shareholder in a company for electricity production forecasting.

Long Man Holding implements its project and service portfolio through two main companies

LONG MAN and ABC WIND FARM

The two companies are different in their competencies and experience, they cover certain stages of project implementation, but working in coordination and synchrony, this contributes to the completeness and depth of the project implementation and ensures high quality, up-to-standard and safe investment for our clients.

Based on extensive experience and resources, Long Man and ABC Wind Farm take full commitment and care over the development of the investment idea – from the design, development and construction to commercial, technical management and maintenance of already-constructed projects.

The modern service depot of ABC Wind Farm is located near the town of Kavarna – a spot full of renewable energy projects that we are implementing and servicing. Favourable location makes it easier for our service teams to respond to any urgent matter as soon as possible, 24/7.

The office of Long Man - the company developing and managing renewable energy projects, is located in the central part of Varna. The location allows quick and easy access to municipal administrations, government agencies and the local network operator.
