Assessment report of prevailing situations in rural areas in Tunisia
January 2020
The baseline study for Tunisia was developed within the Regional Initiative for Promoting Small-Scale Renewable Energy Applications in Rural Areas of the Arab Region (REGEND) framework with an assessment to guide REGEND’s future activities in the country. This covered the country’s socioeconomic and political dynamics, and environmental considerations linked to productive activities by sector, the access to energy services requirements and the availability of supply sources and the associated technologies required to support resilience in rural communities. The report also provided recommendations on the pilot rural community - Chorbane and Maamoura – where most of REGEND’s activities will be conducted.
