Sirte Oil Company announced yesterday that, with the German Technology Holding Company, it is to install a solar energy system at the ‘‘81-kilometre station’’ south of Marsa Al Brega. The solar energy system will produce the equivalent of approximately 1 megawatt of power.
Sirte Oil said this comes, with the support of the National Oil Corporation, as part of its efforts to find alternatives to generating electric power in some locations, and the most important of which is solar energy, considered one of the renewable and clean energy sources.
In a meeting between specialists from Sirte Oil Company and the German Technology Holding Company, it was agreed to organise a field visit to the site, to find out the most important requirements of the system, and to draft a technical study to arrange what is needed to prepare the project.
