Tunisia has commenced construction on two 10 MW solar projects in Kasserine Governorate, developed by energy firms Qair and Mazarine. In September 2024, the country also began building a 50 MW solar plant in Tozeur, a TND 135 million project led by Norway's Scatec and Toyota subsidiary Aeolus.
The latter companies already have a footprint in Tunisia, with Voltalia announcing plans to build a 130MW solar project in the country in May, and Scatec collaborating with Aeolus to build a 120MW project i n August. The second tender calls for two projects of unspecified capacity in Hechain, Gabes governate and Khobna, Sidi Bouzid governate.
