6 FAQs about [Tunisia power grid modeling]
What percentage of Tunisia's electricity is generated from natural gas?
In 2020, natural gas made up 86% of Tunisia's installed capacity and 95% of power generation, while renewable energy made up 13% of installed capacity and 5% of power generation. Fossil fuels represent the majority of Tunisia's electricity generation mix (approximately 97%), with natural gas being the primary fuel source.
What drives Tunisia's energy transition?
Three key drivers will dictate Tunisia's energy transition: energy security, given Tunisia's growing energy balance deficit; economics, given the relative decrease in the price of renewables; and environment, given the Country's commitment to reduce domestic greenhouse gas emissions.
Why does Tunisia need more electricity?
As one of the most climate vulnerable Mediterranean countries, Tunisia's electrical system is expecting increased demand resulting from expanding peak-hour demand patterns, intensifying cooling needs stemming from greater warm spells, and increasing desalination needs.
How many kV power lines are there in Tunisia?
The project will consist of 660 km of 525-kV ACDC overhead lines in Tunisia, 661 km of 525-kV DC submarine cables, and 7 km of 525-kV DC and 400-kV underground cables, terminating at an existing high-voltage substation. Tunisia's power sector is well-developed, with 99.8% of its population having access to the national electric grid.
What are the project regimes in Tunisia?
Depending on the size of the project, Tunisia employs two different project regimes: the Concessions regime, which is applicable for large-scale projects typically designed for energy export, and the Authorizations regime, which is for projects with a maximum capacity of 10 MW, 30 MW, and 15 MW for solar, wind, and biomass projects, respectively.
Does Tunisia have solar power?
Tunisia has significant solar potential given the country's high irradiance, ranging from 1800 kWh/m2 per year in the North to 2600 kWh/m2 per year in the South. This equals approximately 1,980 sunshine hours per year.
