A data overview is available in the global energy statistics app
Total Energy Consumption
The country's per capita consumption is 0.97 toe, which is 3 times lower than the EU average but average for the region. Its per capita electricity consumption is 1 500 kWh (2021) also close to the average for North African countries (1 490 kWh).
Total energy consumption increased by 7% in 2021 after a 5% drop in 2020, mainly as a consequence of the Covid pandemic. Growth in total consumption has slowed down since 2010, to 1.7%/year over 2011-2019 compared to 3.5%/year between 2000 and 2010.

Crude Oil Production
Oil production experienced a rapid increase in 2021 (+23%) due to the commissioning of the Halk el Manzel field. Since 2007, production has decreased by 7%/year on average, from 4.8 Mt to 2.1 Mt in 2021. Exceptionally, it increased significantly in 2007 (+39%) through the exploitation of several small wells in southern Tunisia, mainly the offshore field of Oudna (80 km from the coastline in the Gulf of Hammamet, with a production of around 15 kb/d).

Oil Products Consumption
Oil product consumption rose to 4.7 Mt in 2021, after a regular decline over 2017-2020 (-2.6%/year). Between 2012 and 2015, on the other hand, it increased very rapidly, by 8%/year.
Transport accounts for 51% of this consumption (2021), followed by industry (23%) and the residential and services sector (21%) (2021).

Natural Gas Consumption
Gas consumption increased by 5% in 2021 after dropping by 5% in 2020. Previously, it increased by 2.8%/year between 2014 and 2019, up to 6.5 bcm. Between 2000 and 2012, it grew very rapidly (over 6%/year) and remained stable until 2014.
The main gas market continues to be electricity production (71%). The remaining consumption can be found in industry (14%) and in the residential and services sector (9%) (2021).

Renewable in % Electricity Production
In the framework of the Solar Plan, the Parliament adopted a law on renewables in 2015 aimed at covering 12% of its power mix with renewables by 2020 and 35% by 2030 (corresponding to a capacity of 3.8 GW, around 500 MW/year over a period of 8 years and an investment of US$7.1bn between 2016 and 2030, equal to US$294m/year). However, the development of the programme is far behind the initial schedule; with less than 4% of renewables in the power mix in 2020, the 2020 target has not been reached.

CO2 Fuel Combustion/CO2 Emissions
In its updated NDC (2021), Tunisia set an unconditional carbon intensity reduction target of 27% in 2030 compared to 2010 levels and a conditional reduction target up to 45% with international support (from 23.4 MtCO2 to 12.9 MtCO2). The total budget for reaching the mitigation targets is estimated at around US$14.4bn.
