ALGERIA MOVING TOWARDS INVESTING IN RENEWABLE ENERGIES – A STUDY FROM ALEGAL AND ECONOMIC PERSPECTIVE

Abstract

Over the past few years, Algeria has mainly focused on investing in renewable energies. For the purpose of promoting and encouraging this type of investment, the Algerian authorities decreed a set of legal and regulatory texts in order to efficiently regulate the investment process in renewable energies. They also opened the door to new partners in the private sector and provided all the necessary incentives and motivators for that. The present study aims to peruse the legal and regulatory framework that Algeria has seriously promoted in view of encouraging investment in the field of renewable energies. The results of that study were then assessed by addressing the investment strategies and models that were applied in some Wilayas (Provinces) in the southern region of the country.
