Energy in Syria
In the 2000s, Syria''s electric power system struggled to meet the growing demands presented by an increasingly energy-hungry society. Demand grew by roughly 7.5% per year during this decade, fueled by the expansion of Syria''s industrial and service sectors, the spread of energy-intensive home appliances, and state policies (i.e. high subsidies and low tariffs) that encouraged wasteful energy practices. Syria''s inefficient transmission infrastructure compounded these probl
Off-grid solar systems support the resilience of Syrian households
FAO aims to increase the resilience of hundreds of families by implementing egg incubators with inverter/chargers, batteries and solar photovoltaic panels to operate in areas without electricity or during power cuts. In the north, south and eastern parts of Syria, electricity from the grid runs intermittently from zero to fourteen hours a day.
Syria''s Surprising Solar Boom: Sunlight Powers the Night in Rebel
Cut off from the power grid and with fuel costs soaring, Syrians in a poor, embattled enclave have turned en masse to solar panels to charge their phones and light their homes and tents.
Starved of electricity, some Syrians turn to solar power
Facing crippling electricity cuts, Syrian dentist Ibrahim al-Akzam has turned to solar power to keep his Damascus clinic going, a reflection of the deep energy crisis in his country after 11

Energy in Syria
Energy in Syria is mostly based on oil and gas. [1] Some energy infrastructure was damaged by the Syrian civil war. There is high reliance on fossil fuels for energy in Syria, [2] and electricity demand is projected to increase by 2030, especially for industry activity such as automation. [3]

ENERGY PROFILE Syrian Arab Republic
Onshore wind: Potential wind power density (W/m2) is shown in the seven classes used by NREL, measured at a height of 100m. The bar chart shows the distribution of the country''s land area in each of these classes compared to the global distribution of wind resources. Areas in the third class or above are considered to be a good wind resource.
