South Tripoli power station to add 1,320 MW to national grid as Libya accelerates infrastructure projects
The Libyan General Electricity Company (GECOL) announced that the South Tripoli power station will enter service soon with a production capacity of 1,320 megawatts, marking a significant step toward alleviating chronic power shortages that have long affected households and businesses across the country. The new station is expected to improve electricity supply stability in the capital and surrounding regions.
According to GECOL officials, the project represents one of the largest power generation investments in Libya in recent years. The station's entry into service will complement ongoing efforts to upgrade the national grid and reduce load-shedding hours, particularly during peak summer demand.
Government adopts new housing cash transfer controls
The Government of National Unity has approved new regulations for housing cash transfer programs, aimed at ensuring that financial support reaches those who genuinely qualify. The updated controls introduce stricter verification mechanisms and eligibility criteria designed to eliminate previous loopholes that allowed support to be diverted.
Officials stated that the new system will rely on a centralized database to cross-reference beneficiary information, reducing duplication and fraud. The move is part of broader government efforts to reform social welfare programs and improve transparency in public financial management.
NOC completes renewable energy training program in Sebha
The National Oil Corporation (NOC) has concluded a specialized training program for students majoring in renewable energy at universities in Sebha, southern Libya. The initiative reflects the NOC's growing focus on integrating sustainable energy solutions into Libya's energy strategy.
The program equipped participants with practical skills in solar and wind energy technologies, aligning with global shifts toward clean energy. NOC officials emphasized that investing in human capital, especially in the south, is essential for Libya's long-term economic diversification and energy security.
Agricultural police crack down on illegal quarries in Misrata
The Libyan Agricultural Police have closed down illegal quarries operating on disputed land in Misrata and arrested those involved. The operation targeted unauthorized extraction sites that have been exploiting land without legal permits, causing environmental damage and fueling local conflicts over land rights.
Authorities confirmed that the crackdown is part of a broader campaign to enforce land use regulations and curb illegal economic activities that undermine the rule of law in agricultural zones.
Water company urges conservation amid stable services
The Libyan Water and Sanitation Company confirmed that its services continue to operate across service areas while urging citizens to rationalize water consumption. The company noted that seasonal demand fluctuations and aging infrastructure pose ongoing challenges, but current supply levels remain stable.
The statement called on municipalities and residents to cooperate in preserving water resources, particularly during the summer months when consumption peaks.
International and diplomatic developments
On the diplomatic front, Libya strongly condemned the storming of the Al-Aqsa Mosque compound by Israel's so-called National Security Minister, describing the act as a provocative violation of international law and religious sanctities. The Foreign Ministry called on the international community to take immediate action to stop such escalations.
In separate diplomatic engagements, Libya and Italy discussed strengthening investment cooperation in the blue economy sector and defining joint economic zones. Meanwhile, Undersecretary Al-Zaidani held talks with UN representatives on sustainable development cooperation, and Al-Baour met with the Saudi Chargé d'Affaires to discuss bilateral relations and regional developments.
The United Nations Support Mission in Libya (UNSMIL) also held discussions in Tunisia focused on supporting Libyan capabilities to combat improvised explosive devices (IEDs), a persistent security threat affecting communities across the country.
These developments underscore Libya's active diplomatic engagement and ongoing efforts to address both domestic infrastructure challenges and international obligations.
