Electricity demand will more than double, but
more than enough energy available in EUMENA

Dii, an international industry network…
Shareholders* Associated Partners*
Inspired by Desertec, Dii creates in partnership with local authorities
and industries a market place in EUMENA
for renewable energy from the deserts
* as of December 2012

… mobilizing many stakeholders
in North Africa, the Middle East and Europe
Scientific community Industry
Policy Community
Civil society (NGOs),
e.g. DESERTEC Foundation
Dii conducts it’s studies and initiates reference projects in partnership
with key stakeholders in North Africa, the Middle East and Europe

Dii is open to all field-proven technologies

Connecting the two systems in Europe and
in the MENA region will create benefits for all

While super producers, balancers and
importers profit from the system integration in
a different way, they ALL BENEFIT from being
part of a large sustainable power system.

Creating an EUMENA market makes sense
Average summer day in Europe and MENA
The demand and supply conditions in MENA and Europe are balanced over the course of a single
day. Such balance also exists during different seasons.

Spotlight on Egypt
 Local demand will be
multiplied by 6 by
2050
 High wind resources
will help Egypt secure
its energy supply
 In an interconnected
scenario, possible
exports to Saudi
Arabia and Libya

Desert Power 2050:
a strategic framework in two parts
The first part of Desert Power
2050 is a target picture showing
what a sustainable power system in
North Africa, the Middle East and
Europe could look like in 2050 –
specifically, with which technological
and geographical mix
1
The second part of Desert Power 2050,
“Getting started”, will give actionable recommendations on:
 The development of renewable energy in MENA
 Electricity highways connecting MENA & Europe
 Public support phase-out
 Socio-economic effects

Ecomonic Impacts of Desert Power:
Getting Started for the people
MENA industrial
capability analysis:
 Complexity of
component
manufacturing and
capability status
today
 Hypotheses on
future development
in MENA
Macro-economic
impacts:
 Macro-economic
impact assessment
on country level
 Influences of
different climate
policy and electricity
trade assumptions
Policy
recommendations:
 Advice for
governments on
how to capture the
benefits of desert
power for their
citizens
 Describe actionable
tools for different
sectors
Economic Impacts of Desert Power
Employment
effects:
 Employment effects
for several countries
 Comparison of CSP,
PV, Wind technology
build-up across
different countries

Desert power potential increasingly
recognized in Europe
Intensive talks with
European governments ongoing
GERMANY: Support for desert power
expressed by government
Energy partnership with Tunisia,
Morocco and proposal for an energy
partnership with Algeria
FRANCE: Strategic partnership with
Morocco with an interest expressed
for renewable energy
Support for Tunisia’s renewable
energy targets expressed
ITALY: RE strategy including import
from EU and MENA
RE targets, outlook
2050, infrastructure plan,
Article 9 of the EU Renewables
Directive

The energy transition has already started on
the Southern shore of the Mediterranean
RE targets until 2020 in GW (August 2012)

Dii: stimulating the MENA energy transition
Intensive talks to all other North African
and Middle Eastern countries continued
MOROCCO: RE national strategy
Country strategy with MASEN
Reference Project: 500 MW
ALGERIA: RE national strategy
Planned investment: USD 60 bn. until
2030
Country strategy with Sonelgaz
TUNISIA: RE national strategy
Country strategy with STEG ER
EGYPT: RE on the policy agenda
MoU with NREA (Jan. 2013)
JORDAN: RE strategy
Current talks with Jordanian partners

Co-ordinated actions are the key!

Need for Dii’s work is increasing

Priorities 2013-2014
 MENA country strategies
 Market-orientated implementation
recommendations (RE, grids,
capacity building, etc…)
 Initiate break through reference
projects
 Expanding cooperation with
governments, regulators, industry
and NGOs.

The project: internships for Tunisian
students at Dii partner companies for
6-9 months, beginning in Feb. 2012
Dii’s commitment to education in EUMENA
Pilot Project internship: “Know-
how from the deserts”
Desertec Best Paper Award
Journalist Fellowship
The project: award for outstanding
academic work in the field of
renewable energy in the deserts of
the MENA region
The project: fellowship enabling five
young journalists from MENA to visit
the 4th Dii Desert Energy Conference
in Rabat
