Algeria Accelerates Solar Power Ambitions With 15-GW Target by 2035

Researched by IIR News Intelligence (Sugar Land, Texas)--Algeria is rapidly advancing its renewable energy agenda, targeting 15,000 megawatts (MW) of solar power capacity by 2035 to reduce dependence on natural gas and address rising electricity demand. This strategic push reflects the country's commitment to diversifying its energy mix while strengthening long-term energy security.

According to Industrial Info Resources data, there are 45 active solar power projects in Algeria, valued at a combined US$6.1 billion. Subscribers to the Industrial Info Resources Global Market Intelligence (GMI) Project Database can learn more by viewing the related project reports.

The first phase of the plan involves the development of 3,000 MW of solar capacity through 20 projects spread across 12 provinces, with commissioning expected by 2026. To further accelerate deployment, Algeria has introduced policy reforms aimed at attracting foreign investment and promoting domestic solar manufacturing capabilities. Looking ahead, the country plans to add an additional 12,000 MW of solar capacity between 2030 and 2035.
