Three key drivers will dictate Tunisia's energy transition: energy security,given Tunisia's growing energy balance deficit; economics,given the relative decrease in the price of renewables; and environment,given the Country's commitment to reduce domestic greenhouse gas emissions. What percentage. Why is Tunisia investing in a secure electricity network?To ensure a resilient electricity network, Tunisia is investing in modern, secure infrastructure. The ELMED interconnection project, which will link Tunisia to Italy by 2028, will play a key role in stabilizing energy supply, while supporting the energy transition in Tunisia and Europe.
Does Tunisia have solar power?Scenario 2: See 1, with the additional restriction that excludes areas ≤ 10 km from existing transmission lines (PT10). Tunisia is blessed with huge solar and wind energy resources. Scenario 1 provides 139,748 km2 of areas with solar potential and a total potential for utility-scale solar PV capacity of 3,494 GW.
Can Tunisia build a reliable electricity supply?We found that Tunisia can cost-effectively build a reliable electricity supply based on local power generation, with high proportions of solar and wind power. With an onshore wind potential greater than 30 times the projected 2050 demand and a solar potential greater than 100 times that demand, Tunisia has exceptional renewable energy potential.
How can Tunisia increase its energy access rate?Tunisia must build up and expand its power generation system to increase the energy access rate to 100%. Building new power plants – no matter the technology – will require new infrastructure (including power grids), spatial planning, a stable policy framework, and access to finance.
What is Tunisia's renewable potential?Tunisia’s renewable potential is exceptionally diverse, and not limited to solar and wind power. The values for the full range of renewable technologies is shown below (Table 37).
How many solar and wind power projects are in Tunisia?Solar and wind power projects subject to authorization : Tunisia has granted authorizations for projects with a capacity of 381 MW, including 261 MW of solar PV and 120 MW of wind power. 2 plants with a unit capacity of of Tataouine and Sidi Bouz
