Should Tunisia export solar energy?
While only 3 percent of Tunisia's electricity is generated from renewable energy, and the country is struggling to meet its climate objectives because of the prevailing financial crisis, many foreign private investors are actively targeting Tunisian solar resources for export.
Will the Tunisian Sun be exported to Europe?
Exporting the Tunisian sun to Europe has been the ambitious vision of the Tunisian-British company TuNur for the past ten years, as it plans to develop a mega solar power plant in southern Tunisia. This project will, however, inevitably have an impact on local communities and resources.
Can Tunisia export green electricity?
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.
Why is solar energy important in Tunisia?
Solar energy also contributes to Tunisia's economic development. Expanding the solar energy sector creates job opportunities in manufacturing, installation, maintenance, and research. It attracts foreign investments, particularly in large-scale solar projects like photovoltaic (PV) farms and concentrated solar power (CSP) plants.
