Algeria on Monday broke ground for a 80 megawatts (MW) solar power project as part of a programme to build 15 such plants with a total capacity of 3,200 MW.
Algerian Energy and Mines Minister Mohammed Arqab laid the ground stone for the first project in the Northwestern Bechar province, the official news agency reported.
