The Residential Energy Storage market in Tunisia is gaining traction due to the increasing adoption of renewable energy sources and the need for reliable power supply.
Tunisia, with Mediterranean beaches, vibrant culture and ancient ruins, is North Africa''s best-kept secret. Plan your time and budget with this guide.
Scaling Up Energy Storage to Accelerate Renewables Energy storage is fundamental to stockpile renewable energy on a massive scale.
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
Tunisia''s energy storage power generation sector is transforming faster than a desert sunset. With solar irradiation levels hitting 5.3 kWh/m²/day and wind speeds reaching 9 m/s in coastal
solar PV and wind together accounting for nearly 70%. The integration of these variable energy sources into national energy grids will largely depend on storage technologies, and among
The World Bank is inviting consultants to submit proposals for a technical study on a 350 MW to 400 MW solar project with battery energy storage in Tunisia. The deadline for applications is
Tunisia, country of North Africa situated between Algeria and Libya along the Mediterranean Sea. The country''s capital is Tunis, and it has long been a popular tourist
The critical question emerges: Can Tunisia''s 2050 energy plan bridge this growing gap, addressing structural deficits while maintaining its electricity security?
A German-Tunisian joint venture recently deployed a compressed air energy storage (CAES) system in Sfax. It''s like a giant underground balloon storing enough energy to

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.
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.
In 2022, only 3% of Tunisia’s electricity is generated from renewables, including hydroelectric, solar, and wind energy. While STEG continues to resist private investment in the sector, Parliament’s 2015 energy law encourages IPPs in renewable energy technologies.
In 2024, the GOT is also expected to launch a tender for the construction of at least one 470-550 MW combined-cycle power plant in Skhira (south Tunisia) as an IPP. In May 2018, the Ministry of Energy and Mines published a call for private projects to build renewable power plants with a total capacity of 1,000 MW (500 MW wind and 500 MW solar).
