Abstract

Against the background of an increasing energy demand and growing environmental problems in Algeria due to the use of fossil fuels, renewable energy resources offer interesting opportunities for Algeria. In 2011, Algeria has developed a national program for the period 2011–2030 to promote concrete actions in the fields of renewable energies and energy efficiency.
