Libya’s National Development Agency (NDA) has launched the country’s first large-scale solar-powered irrigation project in the Al-Bawanees Municipality near Sebha. The 50-hectare site uses 146.2 kilowatts of solar capacity to run two underground pumps and center-pivot irrigation systems, ensuring sustainable water and energy use for agriculture. The initiative supports Libya’s strategy to boost food security, expand renewable energy, and modernize desert farming through clean technology-driven development projects.
