Algeria: Feed-in tariff under consideration

Electricity and gas market regulator Commission de Régulation de l’Electricité et du Gaz (Creg) may be planning to introduce a feed-in tariff which would enable third-party power producers to sell electricity into the grid. According to the Algiers-based manager of a European company hoping to develop small independent power projects, a proposal to establish the legal basis for this may be enacted this year. It has been a decade since the authorities last attempted to bring in such a reform.
