Mediterranean Solar Plan
Sunday, 07 February 2010 22:35
The Mediterranean Solar Plan was announced on 13 July 2008 at the Paris Summit for the Mediterranean region.
It was concluded that “market deployment as well as research and development of all alternative sources of energy are a major priority in efforts towards assuring sustainable development” and that the “feasibility, development and creation of a Mediterranean Solar Plan” will be examined.
The objective is to reach 20 GW of new renewable energy capacities by 2020 in the region, out of which 3-4 GW would be covered by PV, 5-6 GW by wind and 10-12 GW by CSP. The physical interconnection of Tunisia-Italy and Turkey-Greece would be a pre-requisite for the implementation of such a plan.
