  • Energy Transition and Revolution in Tunisia: Politics and Spatiality
    Energy Transition and Revolution in Tunisia: Politics and Spatiality Laurence Rocher Institut d’urbanisme, Université Lyon 2, CNRS-EVS, France Éric Verdeil CNRS-EVS, Université de Lyon, France Energy transition in Arab countries is usually addressed as an economic and tech - nological issue. This analysis of Tunisian policies on renewable energy argues that it must be understood from a political and geographical perspective. Energy policy in Tunisia is dominated by STEG, the national utility for electricity and gas, which has held a monopoly since independence and enjoys strong historical legitimacy for its achievements. Beginning the 2000s, however, national energy self-sufficiency was challenged and the government pushed for renewable technologies, which STEG was wary of and whose implementation it has slowed. The Tunisian revolu - tion has strongly shaken the balance of power in the country, allowing for multiple and multi-level criticisms of STEG and for the forging of new alliances for renew - able energy projects. Some of these projects are on the verge of implementation. Because they rely on different geographical visions and varied technologies, however, they may in the end prove unevenly successful. Keywords: energy transition, renewable energy, electricity, socio-technical collec - tive, politics, Tunisia, revolution La transition énergétique dans les pays arabes est généralement traitée comme un enjeu économique et technologique. Analysant les politiques énergétiques tunisiennes, en particulier la promotion des énergies renouvelables, nous défendons l’idée que la transition énergétique doit être comprise dans une perspective politique et géogra - phique. La politique énergétique en Tunisie est dominée par la STEG, l’opérateur public en charge de l’électricité et du gaz ; elle détient le monopole depuis l’Indépendance et bénéficie d’une forte légitimité historique pour ses réalisations.

  • The Case of Morocco
    MEDRESET Working Papers No. 32, December 2018 Assessing EU–Mediterranean Policies in the Field of Energy from a Bottom-Up Perspective: The Case of Morocco Margherita Bianchi, Lorenzo Colantoni, Federico Mascolo and Nicolò Sartori This project is funded by the European Union’s Horizon 2020 Programme for Research and Innovation under grant agreement no 693055. MEDRESET Working Papers No. 32, December 2018 Assessing EU–Mediterranean Policies in the Field of Energy from a Bottom-Up Perspective: The Case of Morocco Margherita Bianchi, Lorenzo Colantoni, Federico Mascolo and Nicolò Sartori1 Abstract The purpose of this report is to evaluate the effectiveness of EU policies and measures in the energy field in light of the needs and interests of local bottom-up actors in Morocco. The report firstly provides an overview of the Moroccan energy sector. It reviews the most relevant literature to define current and future trends, to identify the major challenges, analyse current national energy policies and assess their social impacts; then it describes the framework of EU energy policies in Morocco. In the second part, the report discusses the needs and interests of local bottom-up actors in the energy field mainly drawing on the recursive multi-stakeholder consultations held by the researchers in the field. In line with MEDRESET research questions, it highlights the most relevant issues brought up by the local respondents and a few EU stakeholders, evaluating their perception of current Moroccan and EU energy policies in the country and reporting their suggestions for improvements. Introduction According to the latest World Energy Council’s Energy Trilemma Index Tool,2 Morocco ranks 68th.
