Can Syria match all-purpose energy demand with wind-water-solar (WWS)?This infographic summarizes results from simulations that demonstrate the ability of Syria to match all-purpose energy demand with wind-water-solar (WWS) electricity and heat supply, storage, and demand response continuously every 30 seconds for three years (2050-2052).
How much solar energy will Syria have by 2030?The Syrian Minister of Electricity unveiled an ambitious plan to introduce up to 2,500 megawatts of solar energy and 1,500 megawatts of wind power by 2030, alongside the installation of 1.2 million solar water heaters. However, Syria's complex economic conditions present a major obstacle to achieving these targets.
How much damage has the Syrian electricity sector suffered over the war?In a recent interview, Syrian Minister of Electricity Ghassan al-Zamel detailed the extensive damage that the electricity sector has endured over the thirteen-year war, estimating direct losses at $40 billion and indirect losses exceeding $80 billion.
Why does Syria have a power shortage?The destruction of electrical infrastructure and transmission lines has incapacitated more than 50 percent of Syria’s electrical grid. Compounding the problem is the severe shortage of gas and fuel required to operate power plants.
What happens if Syria is interconnected to the Mideast?Estimated long-term, full-time jobs created and lost in the Mideast as a whole and in Syria itself when interconnected to the Mideast, due to transitioning from BAU energy to 100% WWS across all energy sectors.
Can Syria achieve a large-scale project?However, Syria's complex economic conditions present a major obstacle to achieving these targets. Large-scale projects are scarce, mostly limited to industrial cities, and often remain unfinish
