Tunisia: Government to buy electricity from solar PV energy unitNandita Parshad, Managing Director of the EBRD’s Sustainable Infrastructure Group, said they are proud to partner with the two companies on their first utility-scale solar projects in Tunisia. The Global Forum on Sustainable Energy (GFSE) cites a study saying Tunisia has potential to create 840GW of solar PV projects and 1,000GW of concentrated solar power. How much solar energy projects does Tunisia have in the works? What is the private sector representation in renewable energy projects in Tunisia? The ITA says by 2017 the government of Tunisia had awarded 24 solar projects of 10MW each, two solar projects of 50MW each, two solar projects of 100MW each, one solar project of 200MW, and four wind projects of 30MW each to private companies, but most have not yet come online.
