ABO Wind has received permit and a tariff for a project in Tunisia. The solar park in the governorate Gabès, approximately 400 kilometres south of the country’s capital Tunis, has a capacity of 10 megawatts.
ABO Wind plans to build the project in 2020 in close cooperation with local partners. The solar park will produce more than 18 million kilowatt hours of electricity per year and will feed it into the grid at a distance of 2,500 metres.
The developer will conclude an electricity supply contract with the state-owned energy supplier Société tunisienne de l’électricité et du gaz, which will provide a fixed remuneration over 20 years for the electricity fed into the grid.
