Algerian state-owned energy company Sonelgaz awarded 20 solar projects with a total <\/strong>capacity of 3 GW to a mix of local companies and foreign companies<\/strong>, according to a statement<\/a> published on Thursday. The 20 solar plants will be constructed across 17 provinces. The companies awarded contracts, the investment tickets for individual projects, and the timelines for development were not disclosed. <\/p>\n

Background:<\/strong> Sonalgaz first tendered 15 solar energy stations<\/a> with a capacity ranging from 80-220 MW across 12 states last October, then followed it up for a secondary tender including five stations with a capacity ranging from 50-300 MW distributed across 5 states, according to the statement. Both tenders attracted 20 bidders and a total of 77 offers.<\/p>\n

Part of a bigger plan: <\/strong>Algeria has handed Sonelgaz the responsibility of producing 15 GW of renewable energy by 2035<\/a> from renewables. The country had about 423 MW of solar<\/a> capacity installed by the end of 2021, according to the International Renewable Energy Agency.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
