MENA Concentrated Solar Power (CSP) Investment Plan
Jonathan WaltersSector Manager, Energy and Transport
Middle East and North AfricaWorld Bank
Favorable for Concentrated Solar Power (CSP)Worth considering for CSP
Areas physically suitable for solar energy
Parabolic Trough Technology
Why solar energy is important for Middle East & North Africa (MENA)?
Industrial diversification and job creationFirst mover advantage in an industry
starting to take off For oil & gas producers: free up oil & gas for
higher value added usesFor oil & gas importers: energy securityExport to high-paying green electricity
markets in Europe
Why MENA’s scale-up is globally important?
MENA and South Western USA/Mexico offer best solar resources; land, infrastructure and market access
Therefore economies of scale can be achieved most effectively in these two regions, and then deployed elsewhere
So major contribution to climate change mitigation

Total * ~ US$ 6-8 billion
* of which US$ 4 billion for generation projects
Objectives of Tunis Meeting
