In June 2023, the World Bank approved US$268.4 million in financing for the Tunisia-Italy interconnector (ELMED) project that will link energy grids between Tunisia and
Energy storage projects are being implemented to reduce reliance on fossil fuels, enhance grid reliability, and support the country`s energy transition goals. Key players in the market include
TuNur is developing a series of renewable energy projects that will produce low-cost green electrons and molecules in Tunisia for export. Each export project consists of three components:
The global demand for renewable energy has led to the rise of battery energy storage system companies, also called BESS companies, which are pivotal for efficient and reliable energy
As we speak, Tunisian innovators are testing sand batteries in Douz, hydrogen storage in Gabès, and even gravity-based systems repurposing old mine shafts. The energy
The Tunisian Electricity and Gas Company (Société Tunisienne de l''Electricité et du Gaz), a public-owned company created in 1962 for the production and distribution of electricity and
Industrial & Commercial Energy Storage Market Growth The global industrial and commercial energy storage market is experiencing explosive growth, with demand increasing by over
Key players in the market include international energy storage providers, as well as local companies focusing on developing innovative storage solutions tailored to Tunisia`s specific
With solar irradiation levels hitting 5.3 kWh/m²/day and wind speeds reaching 9 m/s in coastal areas, this North African nation could power half the Mediterranean - if it can store that energy
What is Tunisia''s energy policy? Tunisia mostly relies on gas imports to meet its primary energy needs: almost 97% of its electricity generation came from gas in 2016. However, energy policy
Summary: Sousse, Tunisia is emerging as a strategic player in energy storage manufacturing. This article explores the region''s growing capabilities, key industry trends, and how
PDF version includes complete article with source references. Suitable for printing and offline reading.
Exploiting its renewable energy potential will also allow Tunisia to export green electricity, including green hydrogen, contributing to the GHG emission targets of the Maghreb and Europe.
The energy sector in Tunisia includes all production, processing and, transit of energy consumption in this country. The production involves the upstream sector that includes general oil and gas, the downstream sector that includes the only refinery in Tunisia and most of the production of natural gas, and varied electrical/renewable energies.
The planned transition of the energy sector would also lead to more economic opportunities and private sector-led job creation. The Government of Tunisia (GoT) has embarked on an ambitious path to increase its renewable energy production.
A virtuous cycle of green, affordable, and financially viable energy production. I. The Tunisian Energy Landscape Tunisia relies on imported natural gas to meet the majority of its growing electricity needs, even though the country has a vast potential to generate renewable energy.
