Energy in Algeria refers to energy and electricity production, consumption, and import in Algeria. The country had a primary energy use of 462 TWh in 2009 with a consumption of 13 TWh per million persons. Algeria is an OPEC country.
Algeria’s electric power sector primarily uses fossil fuel-derived sources for generation, comprising about 97% of total power capacity in Algeria (Figures 4 and 5). Algeria’s total electricity capacity nearly doubled between 2011 and 2020.
Despite the recent increase in renewable energy capacity and generation, ambitious targets, and investment plans, Algeria’s energy mix has remained predominantly fossil based. In 2021, almost all the energy produced in the country was derived from natural gas and oil products. The same applied to the type of power consumed.
Additionally, Algeria is developing an energy roadmap to expand renewable energy sources in power generation and become a major exporter of green hydrogen. The country is advancing projects to boost renewable energy power generation to 15,000 megawatts (MW), nearly 30% of the total energy mix, by 2035.
ALGIERS: Algeria has expressed a determination to become a platform for energy transition. How can it meet this challenge and what could be its strategy to get out of its current almost total dependence on fossil fuels?
The country is now considering bids for solar photovoltaic plants to produce electricity. The Algerian government is doing everything in its power to improve the business climate for both local and foreign investors. Green hydrogen is another energy trend which will make it possible to achieve the objectives set out by COP26.

Algeria primarily relies on fossil fuels for energy generation, with nearly 97% of its electricity capacity derived from these sources. The country has seen significant growth in its electricity capacity, which nearly doubled from 2011 to 2020, mainly due to the addition of more efficient natural gas-fired and combined-cycle gas turbine plants. However, Algeria is also aiming to increase its renewable energy capacity to 15 GW by 2035, starting with a solicitation for bids to i…
