PROJECT DESCRIPTION (DE)
Initial situation
Libya has rich oil and natural gas reserves that are used to generate electricity. Renewable energies have so far played little role in the country.
However, violent conflicts threaten the population's electricity supply: the existing network has been damaged by a lack of maintenance and acts of sabotage. The small number of power plants also makes the central electricity supply vulnerable to disruptions and major outages. In addition, there are supply bottlenecks with energy sources, which leads to power outages, especially in the summer months.
The expansion of renewable energies to a more decentralized electricity supply can improve this situation. However, the legal and regulatory basis for this and the knowledge among employees of institutions and companies in the energy sector are still lacking. Key questions are the connection of independent power producers or the calculation of remuneration for decentrally fed-in electricity.
Objective
The regulatory, institutional and technological conditions for the expansion of renewable energies have improved.
Approach
Advice and training improve the knowledge and skills of employees of national and municipal institutions and authorities. Those involved learn how to create and enforce legal and regulatory requirements to promote renewable energies.
The project trains employees of the Renewable Energy Authority of Libya (REAOL). It also involves municipalities so that they can benefit from this development. The municipal electricity supply becomes more resilient by using all technical options and embedding them in comprehensive concepts. In technical training, key players learn how to better plan and manage the complex connection o
