At a meeting between Algerian representatives and the German delegation from BSW Solar, the two parties explored ways to strengthen bilateral cooperation, particularly through partnerships between the Sonelgaz Group and German companies specializing in solar energy. Discussions focused on the local manufacture of solar components, technology transfer and training, as well as the development of projects linked to green hydrogen, electricity transmission and smart grids.

Discussions focused on the 'TaqatHy+' project and the memorandum of understanding signed in February 2024, which aims to strengthen Algerian capabilities and develop a local renewable energy industry. The Algerian official added that this cooperation forms part of the national sustainable energy transition strategy. German expertise was praised as a vital means of achieving these goals.

The German delegation expressed a strong interest in the Algerian market, which was seen as a promising one for sustainable strategic partnerships, particularly in a favourable regulatory environment. The German BSW Solar Association is a driving force in shaping Germany's energy policies and a key supporter of companies looking to expand abroad.
