Algeria Ratchets Up Solar Developments to 15 GW by 2035

---

Researched by Industrial Info Resources (Sugar Land, Texas)--Algeria plans to diversify its energy mix bringing its total solar capacity to 15,000 megawatts (MW) by 2035. Algeria's Ministry of Energy Transition and Renewable Energy (Algiers) recently launched multiple call for tenders to build solar-power plants in several regions.

Through auction, Algeria plans allocate the total capacity in lots ranging from 50 MW to 300 MW. As many as 11 sites already have been selected for solar development.

Europe's drive to end its reliance on Russian natural gas supplies, triggered by the war in Ukraine, is resulting in a rush to import North Africa's abundant renewable resources. Nations across the region are developing solar plants and laying underwater cables to export energy.

Industrial Info is tracking 32 solar projects, totaling about US$5.1 billion in value, across Algeria.
