Speaking at a workshop on renewable energies, held part of the forum, the minister stated that the Algerian regulations guarantee to companies producing electricity from renewable energies costs enabling them recover expenses and make profits.
Algeria established an investment legal framework in the fields of renewable energies in order to develop all infrastructure relating to this sector and boost partnership to manufacture related equipment in Algeria.
In this regard, he referred to priorities of the National program of renewable energy development adopted by the Council of Ministers in May 2015 that targets a 4.500-megawat power production generated by solar and wind energy.
