Svalbard and Jan Mayen (Norwegian: Svalbard og Jan Mayen, ISO 3166-1 alpha-2: SJ, ISO 3166-1 alpha-3: SJM, ISO 3166-1 numeric: 744) is a statistical designation defined by ISO 3166-1 for a collective grouping of two remote jurisdictions of Norway: Svalbard and Jan Mayen.
The islands are located north and northwest of Norway, within the southern limits of Arctic sea ice — the northernmost point of Svalbard is within a 620 mi (1,000 km) of the North Pole. Svalbard is approximately 24,570 square mi (63,000 square km); Jan Mayen is approximately 145 square mi (373 square km).
Svalbard and Jan Mayen have in common that they are the only integrated parts of Norway not allocated to counties. While a separate ISO code for Svalbard was proposed by the United Nations, it was the Norwegian authorities who took initiative to include Jan Mayen in the code. Its official language is Norwegian.
ISO 3166-2:SJ is the entry for Svalbard and Jan Mayen in ISO 3166-2, a system for assigning codes to subnational administrative divisions. However, further subdivision for Svalbard and Jan Mayen occurs under Norway's entry, ISO 3166-2:NO:
Svalbard and Jan Mayen had a population of 2,939 in January 2021. There were 1,542 internet users in January 2021.
The archipelago is administered by the Governor of Svalbard, which is subordinate to the Norwegian Ministry of Justice and Public Security. Unlike the rest of Norway (including Jan Mayen), Svalbard is a free economic zone and a demilitarized zone, and is not part of the Schengen Area nor the European Economic Area.

Edwaleni Solar Power Station, is a 100 megawatts power plant under construction in . The solar farm is under development by Frazium Energy, a subsidiary of the Frazer Solar Group, an Australian-German conglomerate. The solar component is complemented by a , expected to be the largest in Africa. The energy off-taker is Eswatini Electricity Company (EEC), the national electricity utility company, under a 40-year [pdf]
Although Eswatini's electrification rates are relatively high, they are still a long way off 100% (the country's target for 2022). Solar power is the most viable solution for Eswatini to help meet its electrification goals and save costs down the line.
Formerly known as Swaziland, the Kingdom of Eswatini issued its first utility-scale solar tender in June. It aims to increase the share of renewables in the country’s electricity mix to 50% by 2030.
The biggest driver of growth in Eswatini’s PV market is private PV projects. In 2022, Eswatini partnered with Frazium Energy to commission a new 100MW solar storage project with 75,000 PV panels, hoping to produce more than 100 million kWh of electricity a year and generate at least 200 jobs.
Despite being one of Africa’s smallest countries, Eswatini has an impressive, diverse topography and climate. Unfortunately, its electricity infrastructure is not reliable.
The biggest driver of growth in Eswatini's PV market comes from private PV projects. In hopes of reaching ambitious goals, Eswatini has made solar panels and batteries exempt from import duties to help with this.
The Eswatini Energy Regulatory Authority (ESERA) has begun the process of procuring new generating capacity from independent power producers, with the support of Eswatini’s Ministry of Natural Resources and Energy (MNRE).

In Tataouine, in the governorate of Tunisia that goes by the same name, a photovoltaic power plant is in operation that can reach a maximum installed capacity of 10 MW to supply more than 20 GWh of energy per year to the national grid. The plant is equipped with a solar tracking system that optimises the energy that is produced.
Tunisia has a target of generating 30% of its electricity from renewable energy sources by 2030. The south of the country, where our Adam and Tataouine power plants are located, is an ideal area for solar power generation.
In Tunisia, Nur Energie is developing the world’s first CSP solar export project between North Africa and Europe. For more information about the TuNur project please visit the TuNur company website:
Nur Energie has built and maintained a solar weather station for 3 years on the TuNur site to receive real time solar data on the ground. Tunisia has up to 20% better radiation than some of the best sites in Europe, and the Sahara desert provides significant land to develop large scale solar power projects.
