By applying a phase model
for the renewables-based
energy transition in the
MENA countries to Palestine,
the study provides a guiding
vision to support the strategy
development and steering of
the energy transition process
A shift towards a
sustainable energy system
could support Palestine to
secure a reliable and
affordable electricity supply,
achieve cost savings, and
create long-term benefits
for economic growth.
To what extent the
renewable energy potential
in Palestine can be exploited
will depend heavily on
political developments.
