For the past five years renewable IPP procurement hasn’t worked. It now looks like a set of talented and dedicated officials have fixed that problem. So is this the time to commit?
The government has a new energy strategy, the main objective of which is to strengthen energy security and limit dependence on fossil fuels. The strategy sets a target of achieving 35% of renewable energy in the mix by 2030 and 50% by 2035.
The re-election of populist and autocratic President Kaïs Saïed adds a level of political risk, particularly if his relations with international institutions such as the IMF and World Bank deteriorate further.
The really massive prize for investors – and perhaps also for the country – lies in exporting green energy from Tunisia to Europe. But these projects depend on investors and offtakers seeing a stable governance regime. It would also help if investors on the domestic renewable power market were making progress.
The webinar will use the latest assessment from African Energy Live Data to illustrate the current trajectory of Tunisia's power sector and the trends and projects whose success or failure will help define the outcome of President Saïed's second term.
John Hamilton and African Energy Live Data will untangle the set of interlinked dilemmas facing investors looking at Tunisia’s power sector.
