AGP Executive Report

Last update: 7 hours ago

Tunisia’s Energy Push: Tunisia has launched a national call for tenders to draft an energy efficiency action plan by 2040, aiming to cut demand for conventional fuels and set sector priorities via the TUNEPS procurement platform. Water & Infrastructure: Tunisia brought into service the Gargour seawater desalination plant in Sfax (100,000 m3/day, expandable to 250,000), supported by JICA, with plans to redirect water to Sahel and Cap Bon amid recurring stress. Power Interconnection: Prysmian received the go-ahead to build the Elmed HVDC submarine link between Italy and Tunisia (600 MW, 220 km, 200 km undersea), a €460m project meant to connect renewable generation into Europe. Renewables & Transition: Tunisia ranked 62nd out of 120 in the WEF Energy Transition Index, second in Africa, showing solid electricity access but weaker transition readiness. Engineering Talent Link: The Order of Tunisian Engineers warns that Tunisia’s development losses come from broken ties with engineers abroad, proposing a digital platform to connect the diaspora with ministries and the council. Consumer Safety Regulation: OTIC calls for urgent rules on electric scooters—speed limits, riding zones, minimum age, import controls, and mandatory safety measures. Agritech Investment: Sfax-based RoboCare secured a six-figure investment from 216 Capital to expand its AI precision agriculture platform across Africa and the Middle East. Industrial Accountability: Tunisia’s tax police opened a major probe into suspected price manipulation and tax evasion in the salt sector, targeting 14 foreign-owned companies.
