Solar & Storage EPC in Tunisia
Tunisia imports energy and pays for it, which makes the displacement value of on-site generation high. Its industrial and tourism sectors are the natural first customers.

The market
STEG operates Tunisia's electricity system and handles grid connection for distributed generation. Tunisia's energy balance has moved into deficit, and the fiscal cost of imported energy has driven policy toward domestic renewable deployment and self-generation frameworks.
For a contractor, the attractive segments are industrial facilities with steady daytime load and the hospitality sector, where cooling demand peaks precisely when generation does.
