What re technologies are available in Libya?

Existing utilization state and predicted development potential of various RE technologies in Libya, including solar energy, wind (onshore & offshore), biomass, wave and geothermal energy, are thoroughly investigated.

How much gas is needed for electricity production in Libya?

Based on the general production administration of GECOL, the daily average amount of gas supply required for electricity production in the year 2019 was 581 millions of cubic feet (MCF), constituting 26.7% of the daily national gas production. Natural gas represents about 63% of the Libyan electricity as presented in ].

Can a 14 MW grid-connected photovoltaic power plant be installed in Libya?

A performance analysis of a 14 MW grid-connected photovoltaic (GCPV) power plant proposed to be installed at Hun in the middle of Libya was performed [ ]. The simulated plant produced an average annual overall yield factor of 1783 kWh/kWp and an average annual performance ratio of 76.9%.

How much power does Libya import a year?

Currently, Libya imports more than 300 GWh to alleviate the electricity deficit problem [ ]. The total annual power generation, as depicted in , has increased from 21.31 TWh in 2005 to 30.61 TWh in 2010 i.e., 44% increase in 5 years, and from 24.44 to 35.64 TWh between 2011 and 2013.

Is Libya a good candidate for low-carbon hydrogen production?

Libya is an ideal candidate for low-carbon hydrogen production either by means of natural gas combined with carbon capture use storage [ 178 ], methane splitting [ 179 ], or by its available rich RE resources [ 180 ]. Interest on solar-hydrogen production in Libya is not new.
