6 FAQs about [Algeria good solar system]

Will Algeria build a solar PV plant?

The state owned utility for electricity and natural gas distribution in Algeria has signed 19 contracts with local and international companies to construct solar PV plants. In making the announcement recently, the government said the project to produce 3,000MW of solar PV energy is part of its Renewable Energy Development Programme.

Is Algeria ready for solar energy?

Houari Mahi is the head of engineering of Sonelgaz Energies Renouvelables, he explains to Euronews Algeria's potential regarding solar energy. "Algeria has 3,000 hours of sunshine per year, and in the case of Laghouat, it is estimated at 1,800 hours per year. This is enough to push us to invest in the construction of photovoltaic structures.

Are there solar investment opportunities in Algeria?

We are proud to present our findings on solar investment opportunities in Algeria. This report provides a snapshot of Algeria’s business environment and, major macroeconomic trends, while analysing issues related to foreign investment barriers and the country’s political situation.

Can Algeria achieve 15,000 MWp of solar energy by 2035?

To diversify its energy mix, largely dominated by gas and oil, Algeria wants to achieve 15,000 MWp of solar energy by 2035. A call for tenders is underway to install solar power plants in several regions. The region of Laghouat is at the forefront of this conversion: solar kits have been distributed to remote villages and to nomadic populations.

How much solar power does Algeria have?

With around 3,000 hours of sunshine annually, Algeria has immense solar potential. The northern regions receive nearly 1,700 kWh/m² per year, while southern areas reach 2,263 kWh/m². Yet, by the end of 2023, the country had only 437 MW of solar capacity, with most of its electricity still generated from domestic gas.

What is Algeria's solar energy project?

Completed in 2016, the project is a prototype and part of the country's transition, aimed at preserving fossil fuel ressources and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Houari Mahi is the head of engineering of Sonelgaz Energies Renouvelables, he explains to Euronews Algeria's potential regarding solar energy.
