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

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 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]

Tunisia''s energy sector can become an engine of green growth

The large-scale development of renewable energy could catalyze economic growth in Tunisia in several ways: firstly, by reducing energy cost and decreasing the need for subsidies; secondly, by making this energy green and minimizing dependence on imported fossil fuels, thereby contributing to more balanced trade flows; and thirdly, by attracting

Green Energy Production in Tunisia: The World Bank Group

The Government of Tunisia (GoT) has embarked on an ambitious path to increase its renewable energy production. The GoT plans to reach 35% of renewable energy in the electricity system capacity by 2030, against 3% currently. Renewable energy is then expected to cover 50% of the electricity needs by 2035, and 100% of all electricity needs by 2050.

The transition to renewable energies in Tunisia: The asymmetric

In fact, the study suggests that Tunisia should include more renewable sources into its energy mix, by efficiently exploiting its potential of solar and wind energy. This strategy can enable Tunisia to meet its energy needs, reduce its energy dependency, and take advantage of export potential, especially considering its proximity to Europe.
