Solar panels for green energy Madagascar
Thanks to the high level of solar radiation in Madagascar, the solar system can ensure the average power requirement of at least 20,000 Madagascans and avoid the emission of around 4,000 tons of CO2. [pdf]
Powerup energy Tunisia
The reports for 2014 an electricity production of 19 TWh, compared to 10.5 TWh in the year 2000. The (STEG), a public company, ensures the three quarters of production. The network operates at 50 Hertz and the voltage at the domestic level is 230 Volts. Virtually all Tunisian electricity (18 TWh) is produced by burning natural gas.

How much of Tunisia's electricity is generated from renewables?
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 the area of renewable energy technologies.
How much power does Tunisia have?
At the end of 2018, Tunisia had an installed capacity of 240 MW of wind power, 10 MW of solar, and 62 MW of hydroelectric, representing a combined 5.7% of national energy production capacity. The GOT aims to raise the usage of these types of energy resources to 30% of total power capacity by 2030.
Who produces Tunisia's electricity?
State power utility company STEG controls 91.5% of the country’s installed power production capacity and produces 81% of the electricity. The remainder is produced by Tunisia’s only independent power producer (IPP) Carthage Power Company (CPC), a 471-MW combined-cycle power plant.
Does Tunisia have a solar power plant?
First utility-scale photovoltaic plant (10 MW, in Tozeur) was commissioned in 2019 on German money. Tunisia aims to generate 30% of its electricity from renewable sources by 2030. The country currently gets only 3% to 6% of its electricity from renewable sources, mostly from wind and hydro. Solar energy capacity is at 35 megawatts (MW).
How is power Tunisia funded?
The Power Tunisia Activity is funded through USAID and made possible by the generosity of the US government and the American People.

What are Tunisia's energy projects?
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.
