STEG is seeking a €40 million loan from the EBRD for a 50 MW solar and battery storage project in El-Medina, Tunisia. The total project cost is estimated at €82 million, with the EBRD loan covering almost half.

The solar park will integrate a battery energy storage system to manage solar power variability, providing a stable electricity supply. This initiative supports Tunisia's goal of generating 35% of electricity from renewables by 2030. The EBRD is reviewing the project's environmental and social aspects and will provide technical support to enhance STEG's operations and renewable energy integration.
