The Yemeni government is committed to economic reform, hoping that it will lead to further economic stability and recovery in the upcoming future. The energy sector is one of the key elements of these improvements (The Republic of Yemen 2013). Besides, Yemen's power industry is currently witnessing the worst crisis in the nation's history.
Yemen will generate annual revenue from carbon trading and the sale of unused fossil fuels (such as oil and its by-products) and natural gas by relying on renewable energy to generate electricity. The total generating capacity of wind and solar energy is 18600 + 34,286 = 52886 MW (52.886GW).
As mentioned earlier, according to the International Energy Agency, in 2000, oil made up 98.4% of the total primary energy supply in Yemen, while in 2017, oil made up about 76% of the total primary energy supply, and natural gas about 16%. Oil and gas are the largest suppliers of fuel for power plants (Sufian 2019).
Therefore, the remaining power of wind and solar energy is about 33.59GW and according to case two, the total power required which is 9.648GW needed by the Yemeni population in 2030 only accounted for about 18% of the total available power of 52.886GW of wind and solar power, and the remaining power is 43.238GW.
