EuroMeSCo Releases Joint Policy Study on Renewable Energy Megaprojects in North Africa
EuroMeSCo has published a new joint policy study titled Renewable Energy and Electricity Interconnection Megaprojects in North Africa: Prospects for Euro-North Africa Cooperation. Coordinated by Michael Tanchum, authored by Michael Tanchum, Hussein Mohammed Suleiman, Alexander P. Martin, Tristano Sainati, and Jose Rodrigo Juarez Cornelio, the study examines the potential and challenges of renewable energy projects in Morocco, Egypt, Algeria, and Tunisia.
Highlighting North Africa’s vast solar energy potential, particularly in the Sahara Desert, the study explores the economic and geopolitical benefits of Euro-North African collaboration. Despite this potential, the region faces significant obstacles, including geopolitical, economic, societal, and infrastructural challenges.
The publication calls for enhanced cooperation to maximize renewable energy opportunities, promoting sustainable development and energy security across the Mediterranean.
