Tunisia's Minister of Industry, Mines and Energy, Fatima Al-Thabat Shibb, has approved four solar projects with a combined capacity of 500 MW. France-based Qair International will build a 100 MW facility in the Kasr region of Gafsa province and a 200 MW project in the Al-Khabna region of Sidi Bouzid Governorate.
It previously completed a 500 MW solar tender in December 2019. In October 2024, Tunisia launched a new tender for 200 MW of large-scale solar, with submissions due by Jan. 15, 2025. Tunisia’s total solar capacity reached 506 MW by the end of 2023, according to the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA).

Tunisia is advancing utility-scale solar through a series of tenders, including the latest procurement round launched in January 2023. It previously completed a 500 MW solar tender in December 2019. In October 2024, Tunisia launched a new tender for 200 MW of large-scale solar, with submissions due by Jan. 15, 2025.
The Tunisian government last year approved a plan to develop 1,700 MW of renewables capacity by 2027, looking to save $200 million annually by reducing use of natural gas. Tunisia, mostly dependent on gas-fired power, aims to generate 35% of its electricity from renewable sources by 2030. ($1 = 3.1063 Tunisian dinars)
TUNIS, March 24 (Reuters) - Tunisia granted licenses to four international firms to build solar farms with a total capacity of 500 megawatts, together worth 1.2 billion dinars ($386.31 million), the energy ministry said on Monday.
The global residential solar storage and inverter market is experiencing rapid expansion, with demand increasing by over 300% in the past three years. Home energy storage solutions now account for approximately 35% of all new residential solar installations worldwide. North America leads with 38% market share, driven by homeowner energy independence goals and federal tax credits that reduce total system costs by 26-30%. Europe follows with 32% market share, where standardized home storage designs have cut installation timelines by 55% compared to custom solutions. Asia-Pacific represents the fastest-growing region at 45% CAGR, with manufacturing innovations reducing system prices by 18% annually. Emerging markets are adopting residential storage for backup power and energy cost reduction, with typical payback periods of 4-7 years. Modern home installations now feature integrated systems with 10-30kWh capacity at costs below $700/kWh for complete residential energy solutions.
Technological advancements are dramatically improving home solar storage and inverter performance while reducing costs. Next-generation battery management systems maintain optimal performance with 40% less energy loss, extending battery lifespan to 15+ years. Standardized plug-and-play designs have reduced installation costs from $1,200/kW to $650/kW since 2022. Smart integration features now allow home systems to operate as virtual power plants, increasing homeowner savings by 35% through time-of-use optimization and grid services. Safety innovations including multi-stage protection and thermal management systems have reduced insurance premiums by 25% for solar storage installations. New modular designs enable capacity expansion through simple battery additions at just $600/kWh for incremental storage. These innovations have improved ROI significantly, with residential projects typically achieving payback in 5-8 years depending on local electricity rates and incentive programs. Recent pricing trends show standard home systems (5-10kWh) starting at $8,000 and premium systems (15-20kWh) from $12,000, with financing options available for homeowners.
