6 FAQs about [Off grid renewables Tunisia]
What is a renewables readiness assessment in Tunisia?
Renewables Readiness Assessment: Tunisia, prepared in collaboration with the National Agency for Energy Conservation (ANME) and the Ministry of Industry, Energy and Mines, identifies key challenges as the country pursues environmentally and economically sustainable power and heat.
Is Tunisia fully electrified?
The country is close to being fully electrified at 99.8%. The electricity generation mix is dominated by natural gas at 97.5%. The strong dependence on natural gas has serious implications for Tunisia’s energy security, as domestic production of natural gas has stagnated and even declined during recent years.
Does Tunisia allow private power production?
It does not allow, however, unsolicited private power production (either from conventional or renewable sources). Only one concession agreement has been granted, authorising the creation and operation of Tunisia’s first IPP (Carthage Power Company in Radès, 471 megawatts (MW)).
What is the potential for wind power development in Tunisia?
The total area available for wind power development is estimated to be about 32 200 km2. The gross wind energy potential in Tunisia is estimated at more than 8 000 MW (GIZ, 2013). This potential does not consider potential development opportunities in ofshore wind.
How many solar collectors are installed in Tunisia?
From the commercialisation of SWH systems in 1982 until the end of 2018, the cumulative total area of solar collectors installed in Tunisia is estimated at 1 040 000 m2, as shown in Figure 28.
Where are wind farms located in Tunisia?
Tunisia’s wind map illustrates the existence of several suitable sites for wind farms. The most interesting sites (speed exceeding 7 metres per second (m/s) at 80 metres height) are found in the regions of Bizerte and Nabeul, in the central region (Kasserine) and in the southern regions (Tataouine, Western Cape, Gabes and Kebili).
