Algeria Feed In Tariff - Feed-in Tariffs

The solar energy feed in tariff in Algeria is one of the few in Africa. The system is governed by a seemingly arbitrary process of average electricity prices which are set by the market operator. What, exactly, these electricity prices could be is a relatively good question. Since the market operator may set the price at a very low level, there is very little guarantee that an investor will get a profitable margin. Slippery slopes are not impossible to climb, but in the event that an investor is willing to put his money on the line for small medium or large scale projects in this market, he is going to want something enforceable to protect his investment.
On the positive side, this scheme has something to offer which is not seen often in other markets, a project lifetime guarantee for payment! Whether this market is interesting for solar investors remains to be seen, but in our opinion, it is one to at least consider.
