Tunisia aims to produce 80 percent of its electricity from renewable energy sources by 2050
Tunisia aims to increase the contribution of renewable energies to electricity production to 80 percent by 2050, with targets of 35 percent in 2030 and 50 percent in 2035. This is part of a strategy to reduce carbon emissions by 62 percent by 2035. Currently, renewable energies account for approximately 9 percent of electricity generation. Future projects include a capacity of 600 MW for solar energy and 900 MW for wind energy, which will help achieve the targeted total capacity of 4,800 MW by 2035. At present, Tunisia mainly relies on natural gas for electricity production and is working to diversify its energy sources by supporting solar, wind, and biomass energy projects. Financial support programs and facilitations through the Energy Transition Fund and international funding aim to enhance energy efficiency and reduce the carbon footprint of products intended for export.
