Chinese power electronics manufacturer Sineng Electric has supplied central inverters for two utility-scale solar photovoltaic (PV) projects in Algeria with a combined installed capacity of 154 megawatts (MW).

The projects comprise a 52.8MW solar plant in Beni Ounif, located in Béchar Province, and a 101.2MW facility in Ain Baida in Ouargla Province, the company said in a statement.

Both projects are being developed and constructed by Amimer Energie for Sonelgaz EnR, the renewable energy subsidiary of Algeria's state-owned utility Sonelgaz.

The projects are expected to contribute to Algeria's clean energy target of adding 15 gigawatts (GW) of solar power capacity by 2035.
