4 Frequently Asked Questions about "Syria solar power system"

What is Syria's Energy Plan?

The plan will look at Syria's projected energy demand and determine how much of it can come from renewable sources.

What role does energy play in Syria's Recovery?

“Given the critical role of energy in Syria's recovery, we have to rapidly address energy poverty and progressively accelerate the access to renewable energy,” Sudipto Mukerjee, UNDP's resident representative in Syria, said in a statement announcing the plan.

How many megawatts does Syria need?

Al-Bashir said Syria's infrastructure that has been repaired can provide 5,000 megawatts, about half the country's needs, but fuel and gas shortages have hampered generation. With the sanctions lifted, that supply could come in soon.

What was Syria's biggest city like in 2019?

Syria's largest city was mostly pitch-black, the few speckles of light coming from the other households able to afford solar panels, batteries, or private generators. Al-Jenan went thousands of dollars in debt to buy his solar panel in 2019.
