Overview of position

Libya, a North African country heavily reliant on fossil fuels, faces significant challenges in transitioning to sustainable energy. Political instability, economic volatility, and weak institutions have stalled climate and energy reforms. As the only country in the region without utility-scale renewable energy, Libya has Africa’s highest per capita greenhouse gas emissions and ranks among the top global emitters. Despite global renewable energy advancements, Libya’s dependence on subsidized fuel leads to inefficiencies, smuggling, and high consumption.

The energy crisis is worsened by rising temperatures, growing electricity demand, and crumbling infrastructure. Climate change impacts—such as droughts, rising sea levels,anddesertification—further strain limited resources. While hydrocarbons drive national revenue, they also hinder economic diversification and sustainability.
