Most Syrians still live in dimness. Syria''s heavily damaged electrical grid and gas refineries cannot meet domestic demand, so the state rations power to just two hours of electricity a day.
Investment is beginning to return to the country with the lifting of U.S. sanctions, and major energy projects are planned, including an industrial-scale solar farm that would secure
In the 2000s, Syria''s electric power system struggled to meet the growing demands presented by an increasingly energy-hungry society. Demand grew by roughly 7.5% per year during this decade, fueled by the expansion of Syria''s industrial and service sectors, the spread of energy-intensive home appliances, and state policies (i.e. high subsidies and low tariffs) that encouraged wasteful energy practices. Syria''s inefficient transmission infrastructure compounded these probl

Fixing Syria''s damaged power plants and oil fields takes time, so Damascus is racing to get as much fuel as it can to produce more energy.
Solar power is not only practical for Syria — it''s also clean. With heavy reliance on diesel generators, the country has seen a rise in air pollution and noise.
Fixing Syria''s damaged power plants and oil fields takes time, so Damascus is racing to get as much fuel as it can to produce more energy.
Syria is working to rebuild its energy sector after years of civil war and crippling sanctions. The country has suffered severe electricity shortages, with only those who can afford them using costly solar panels or generators.
Between 2015 and 2017, violence and looting destroyed three major power plants, namely the Aleppo Thermal Station, Zayzoon in Idlib, and al-Taim in Deir Ezzor. Pre-war, these three
Electricity supply in Syria has improved since the overthrow of its former dictator Bashar Al Assad last December ended nearly 14 years of civil war, but the recovery remains uneven, according to a report released
This problem was compounded after the fall of the regime, when Iran, which had become Syria''s primary source of fossil fuels, cut off supplies. Turkey and Qatar have rushed
