Legal and Regulatory Framework for Renewable Energies in Algerian Law

Abstract

The Algerian state has focused on the development of the renewable energy sector through a set of legal and regulatory texts aimed at regulating this strategic sector and implementing it in reality. This is based on a combination of approaches that include environmental protection, achieving sustainable development, and ensuring the rational exploitation of various forms of energy to achieve energy security. Additionally, the door to investment in the field of renewable energies has been opened, granting incentives and benefits to investors through investment laws and regulatory texts. Accordingly, our study will focus on identifying the legal texts regulating the renewable energies sector in Algeria, then addressing the energy security program established by the Algerian state in order to embody the gradual trend towards alternative energies.
