“This project is in line with the decision of the country’s higher authorities to charge Sonelgaz with the execution of a national renewable energy programme,” it said.
“Sonelgaz has mobilized all its resources to launch phase 1 of that programme so it the company will become a pioneer in alternative energy production in Algeria.”
