It has been estimated that the rational use of energy in Libya through utilizing more efficient appliances and lighting combined with improved behavior and energy management initiatives can save up to 2000 MW of installed capacity equivalent to burning 50 M barrels of oil [ 161 ].
The average potential of solar PV and onshore wind over the Libyan territories amounts to 1.9 MWh/kW/year and 400 W/m, respectively. Notwithstanding, biomass and geothermal energy sources are likely to play an important complementary role in this regard.
A study conducted by the Center for Solar Energy Research and Studies (CSERS) revealed that replacing electric water heaters (EWH) with the solar counterparts in the domestic sector of Libya could save up to 2.55 TWh of the annual energy consumption [ 157] and the electricity peak would be cut by 3% [ 158 ].
Electricity and gasoline represent the bulk of energy consumption in Libya [ ]. According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), electricity consumption in Libya was equivalent to 2580 kilo tonne of oil equivalent (ktoe) i.e., 2580 × 10 kg in 2017− a figure that is greater than its counterpart of the year 2000 by a factor of 2.5 (1032 ktoe) [ ].
Existing utilization state and predicted development potential of various RE technologies in Libya, including solar energy, wind (onshore & offshore), biomass, wave and geothermal energy, are thoroughly investigated.
