Interconnect Malta (ICM) has launched a Preliminary Market Consultation (PMC) to assess the feasibility of importing 0.8 TWh of renewable energy annually from North Africa. The proposed project involves a subsea power link designed to supply approximately 25% of Malta’s total electricity demand based on 2025 figures. The government is seeking market interest and non-binding price estimates under a 25-year fixed-price Contract for Difference (CfD) mechanism, aiming to leverage North Africa’s solar and wind potential to bolster national energy resilience and carbon reduction goals.
