Its impact is far-reaching, disrupting global energy supply and demand patterns, fracturing long-standi the world is struggling with too little clean energy. With solar irradiation levels hitting 5. 3 kWh/m²/day and wind speeds reaching 9 m/s in coastal areas, this North African nation could power half the Mediterranean - if it can store that energy effectively. The project financing application by national utility Societe Tunisienne. Tunisian utility STEG is planning to build a 400-600MW pumped hydro energy storage plant, for a 2029 commissioning date. STEG, or the Société tunisienne de l'électricité et du gaz (Tunisian Company of Electricity and Gas), is currently undertaking studies for the project, according to a news. The MENALINKS programme, implemented by Guidehouse and its partners ALCOR, Elia Grid International (EGI), Fraunhofer ISI and others, continues its commitment to strengthening national capacity for the integration of renewable energy and storage solutions in Tunisia. In this context, a consultation.
