Tunisia's energy infrastructure

Revised in November 2024, this map provides a detailed view of the energy sector in Tunisia.

The locations of power generation facilities that are operating, under construction or planned are shown by type – including gas and liquid fuels, natural gas, hybrid, hydroelectricity, solar (PV and CSP), wind and biomass/biogas.

Major substations are indicated as are power generation projects with battery storage.

Generation sites are marked with different sized circles to show sites of 1-9MW, 10-99MW, 100-499MW and 500MW and above.

The bottom right of the map lists announced solar projects where final locations have yet to be confirmed.

An inset provides greater detail for the area around Tunis.

Existing and future transmission and distribution lines are shown ranging from 90kV to 400kV. Actual and planned cross-border interconnectors are also shown including the Elmed Interconnector and lines to Algeria and Libya.

The map also shows the location of producing oil and gas fields and associated infrastructure including pipelines, tanker terminals, gas processing facilities, refineries and LNG infrastructure. An inset provides greater detail for the oil and gas fields and infrastructure in the south of the country.

Power generation data was drawn from our African Energy Live Data platform, which contains project level detail on power plants and projects across Africa.

The map is presented as a PDF file using eps graphics, meaning that there is no loss of resolution as the file is enlarged.
