In Tunisia, the national cold-storage capacity is approximately 1,600,000 m 3. In 2010, the national park of goods transportation vehicles includes approximately 3000 refrigerated vehicles (i.e. 0.85% of the total workforce) and 1500 insulated vehicles.
The 3000 refrigerated vehicles are distributed as follows: 910 Trucks (30 m3), 2000 vans (4-5 m3), 5 trailers and 85 semi-trailers (100-105 100-105 100-105 m3). 25% of the electrical consumption of the food industry sector is used to power refrigeration plants. The first solar cooling installation was set up in Tunisia in 2008. It is a thermal-absorption refrigeration system to cool wine.
Voltaic solar refrigeration is also used in Tunisia in the areas of rural electrification, water pumping for irrigation and residential buildings.
