Renewable Energies in Algeria as a Strategy for the Transition From the Brown Economy to the Green Economy (BtG)
Abstract
The energy transition has been placed at the core of sustainable development policies in
Algeria, according to the trilogy of economic renewal based on food security, energy transition and
the digital economy, and as the Algerian economy is based on a non-renewable resource and highly
subject to fluctuations imposed by the outside world, the state had to consider its energy policies
and correct course of its economy. There is no doubt that it is rich in important and diverse
renewable energy sources, especially such as solar energy, wind energy, and its geographical
location and nature allow it to move forward in the transition from the brown economy to the green
economy, i.e. from its dependence on polluting depleted resources to its dependence on
environmentally friendly renewable resources. In order to take advantage of these privileges,
Algeria must try to truly control scientific knowledge in this field and apply it in the field, absorb
innovative technical concepts, as well as try to train its human resources and give greater
importance to this sector, especially in terms of spending.
