6 FAQs about [Tunisia solar power guide]
Is Tunisia a good place to invest in solar energy?
Tunisia’s climate presents a key solar energy opportunity and, together with an improved investment framework and a highly skilled workforce, the country should be well positioned support its ambitious Plan Solaire Tunisien. However, to date, Tunisia has fallen short of its intermediate solar PV targets.
What percentage of Tunisia's electricity is renewable?
In 2022, only 3% of Tunisia’s electricity is generated from renewables, including hydroelectric, solar, and wind energy. While STEG continues to resist private investment in the sector, Parliament’s 2015 energy law encourages IPPs in renewable energy technologies.
What is the Tunisian Solar Plan?
The Tunisian Solar Plan aims at developing an additional renewable energy installed capacity of 3815 MW by 2030. The targeted share per technology is detailed in the chart on the right.
What are Tunisia's energy projects?
One third of the projects will be for wind farms and two thirds for solar photovoltaics. Tunisia’s national grid is connected to those of Algeria and Libya which together helped supply about 12% of Tunisia’s power consumption in the first half of 2023.
What is the energy situation in Tunisia?
The energy situation in Tunisia is marked by limited resources, a decrease in production and a sharp increase in demand. The gap between energy generation and national demand in hydrocarbons has created a deficit in the primary energy balance, which reached 49% in 2018, against 15% in 2010.
Where is the first large scale solar power plant in Tunisia?
The first large scale solar power plant of a 10MW capacity, co-financed by KfW and NIF (Neighbourhood Investment Facility) and implemented by STEG, is in Tozeur. TuNur CSP project is Tunisia’s most ambitious renewable energy project yet.
