In 2020, natural gas made up 86% of Tunisia's installed capacity and 95% of power generation, while renewable energy made up 13% of installed capacity and 5% of power generation. Fossil fuels represent the majority of Tunisia's electricity generation mix (approximately 97%), with natural gas being the primary fuel source.
Tunisia has five gas and oil&gas fields in operation: Hasdrubal, Miskar, Nawara, Sabria, and Chouech Es Saida. While Tunisia produces natural gas (approximately 87,404.63 million cubic feet of natural gas per year, as of 2015), the majority of demand is met through energy imports from neighboring countries.
While STEG controls the vast majority (91.7%) of installed generating capacity and generates 84% of the country's electricity, there is one independent power producer, Carthage Power Company, operating in Tunisia. Carthage Power Company owns and operates a 471-MW combined cycle power plant.
Three key drivers will dictate Tunisia's energy transition: energy security, given Tunisia's growing energy balance deficit; economics, given the relative decrease in the price of renewables; and environment, given the Country's commitment to reduce domestic greenhouse gas emissions.
