“…Morocco is linked with Algeria by three electrical tie buses (two uses 220 kV and one in 400 kV). Tunisia is linked with Algeria by five electrical tie buses (two in 90 kV, one in 150 kV, one in 220 kV and one in 400 kV) [10], [11].…”

“…In order to simulate the integration of the PMU into the north African interconnection power system, we have developed a model of the north African interconnection power system, as shown in Figure 7, it consists of three areas, the area one (Tunisia), the area two (Algeria) and area three (Morocco). The area one and two are connected by a single 400KV interconnection line, and the area two and three are connected by two 400KV interconnection lines [10], [28].…”

<span lang="EN-US">Many international organizations have called for reducing usage of renewable energy as a means to reduce carbon dioxide emissions, this paper studies the case of electricity production based to fossil fuels. Currently existing solutions is to shift from fossil fuels to clean renewable energy. Electrical interconnections are used between large-scale areas; these interconnections have a major problem that is the phenomenon of oscillations. The amount of fossil energy used by power plants depends on the electrical load required. with these conditions it is not possible to reduce the amount of energy required to satisfy the electrical load required. The solution proposed in this paper is the improvement of interarea oscillation using phasor measurement unit technology for real-time monitoring and accuracy of measurements. We tested the proposed solution for the north African power system. The results show the importance of improving interconnection networks to reduce fossil fuels use.</span>

The chapter provides an analysis of the different strategies envisaged by each MENA country regarding the low-carbon energy transformation, mainly in the field of renewable energy sources. By examining the different national strategies, the chapter outlines how they depend on different level of commitments, ambitions and preferences regarding renewable energy sources and project size. Given their high potential, all MENA countries are considering solar projects, and to some extent wind projects (for example in Morocco and Egypt). The transformation of the global energy system and the internal challenges in MENA countries are the driving engines in the energy sector of these countries, though at varying speed depending also on their hydrocarbon endowment (or lack thereof).
