Tunisia Advances Renewables: New solar plants in Sidi

The Secretary emphasised that energy transition remains a top priority for Tunisia, which aims to generate 35% of its electricity from renewable sources by 2030 and 50% by 2050. He also noted that the country plans to

Ambitious climate policies would induce deep transformations in Tunisia''s energy system, based on four inter-connected pillars: uptake of renewable energy, electrification of end-uses, energy efficiency improvements

Tunisia

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.

Energy System Transition in the Context of NDC and Mitigation

Ambitious climate policies would induce deep transformations in Tunisia''s energy system, based on four inter-connected pillars: uptake of renewable energy, electrification of end-uses, energy efficiency improvements and the reduced carbon intensity of the fuel mix.

Renewable Energy in Tunisia: A Pathway to Poverty Alleviation

Renewable energy offers Tunisia an opportunity to stabilize its economy. By reducing its dependence on imported fossil fuels, Tunisia can protect itself from the energy import costs that strain national finances. For instance, in 2022, Tunisia imported approximately 48% of its energy needs, primarily through natural gas, according to the World

The International Energy Agency reports for 2014 an electricity production of 19 TWh, compared to 10.5 TWh in the year 2000. The Tunisian Company of Electricity and Gas (STEG), a public company, ensures the three quarters of production. The network operates at 50 Hertz and the voltage at the domestic level is 230 Volts. Virtually all Tunisian electricity (18 TWh) is produced by thermal power plants burning natural gas

Energy in Tunisia

Tunisia aims to generate 30% of its electricity from renewable sources by 2030. The country currently gets only 3% to 6% of its electricity from renewable sources, mostly from wind and hydro. Solar energy capacity is at 35 megawatts (MW). In addition to wind and hydro, the Tunisian government plans to use biogas to produce renewable energy. [12]
