Construction has commenced on a pilot biological treatment and biomethane production unit in Djerba, Tunisia, aimed at converting household waste into electricity. The facility will treat approximately 6,000 tonnes of organic waste annually, preventing about 5,600 tonnes of CO2 emissions and producing nearly 1,600 megawatt-hours of electricity, enough for 250 households. This project is a collaboration between the National Agency for Energy Conservation, the National Waste Management Agency, and UNDP Tunisia, utilizing Tunisian expertise.
