Technical FAQs 4

How much electricity does Tunisia get from renewable sources?

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.

How much power does Tunisia have?

Tunisia’s total installed renewable power generating capacity had reached approximately 352 MW by the end of 2019, with wind energy at 245 MW, hydropower at 66 MW) and PV at 62 MW (IRENA, 2020b).

What are Tunisia's energy projects?

One third of the projects will be for wind farms and two thirds for solar photovoltaics. Tunisia’s national grid is connected to those of Algeria and Libya which together helped supply about 12% of Tunisia’s power consumption in the first half of 2023.

Who manages the energy sector in Tunisia?

As of March 2020, the Tunisian electricity sector is managed by the Ministry of Energy, Mines and the Energy Transition. For the past two years, renewable energy portfolio was managed by the Ministry of Industry, Small and Medium Size Enterprises.
