Strategy of the renewable energy in algeria, as an inevitable drift to diversification of the economy

Abstract EN

Renewable energy comes from natural resources such as the sun, in contrast to energy derived from finite resources based on fossil fuels like coal and oil which sooner or later will be exhausted.

Algeria's energy mix was almost exclusively based on fossil fuels, especially natural gas.

The development of renewable energies in Algeria is of particular interest for public authorities which tend to give new impetus to this sector to replace the fossil energy whose resources are increasingly scarce.

Renewable energy can play a key role in producing local, clean, and inexhaustible energy to supply Algerian's growing demand for electricity, heat, and transportation fuel.

Algeria has some of the best renewable energy resources in the world.

This paper will focus on the impact of these renewable energies in Algeria and shows that Algeria has the potential to secure its long-term energy future through focus and encouragement on increasing utilization of renewable energy.
