Libya’s renewables wealth offers the potential to diversify its domestic energy matrix and provide decentralized power solutions, with 22% of the country’s electricity generation aimed to be derived from renewables by 2030.
The Government of National Unity in Libya has initiated the National Strategy for Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency, outlining plans for achieving 4 GW of combined solar and wind capacity by 2035.
The primary objectives of the plant include localizing technology, expanding the public grid, alleviating power shortages and supplying power to the region and network at-large. Libya is set to construct a 62 kWp solar power plant in the Center for Solar Energy and Research in Tajura, located near the capital of Tripoli.
Libya is set to construct a 62 kWp solar power plant in the Center for Solar Energy and Research in Tajura, located near the capital of Tripoli. Upon completion, the project will be connected to the national grid and will service the wider north-western region, with a view to reducing the country’s current power generation deficit of 1,500 MW.
Libya has rich oil and natural gas reserves that are used to produce power. At present, renewable energy sources play scarcely any role in the country. However, violent conflict is threatening the population’s power supply: the existing power grid is damaged due to a lack of maintenance and acts of sabotage.
Construction of the plant is being led by Alhandasya, a Libyan company specialized in engineering services, electromechanical works and renewable energy development and implementation. The construction of a solar photovoltaic power plant is already underway in Kufra, with a planned capacity of 100 MWp.
