The Algerian Agency for the Promotion and Rationalization of Energy Use (APRUE) is actively working to promote energy efficiency and renewable energy in the country. As part of its efforts, the agency is organizing specialized training sessions for professionals from various sectors. These trainings aim to rationalize energy use and promote the use of renewable energy sources. The APRUE's efforts are crucial in supporting Algeria's national strategy for energy efficiency.
The APRUE has recently launched a five-day training session on the installation and sizing of solar water heaters (CES). This training, which started on September 20, 2026, targets professionals, installers, study bureaus, and energy service companies. The goal is to equip them with the necessary expertise to master this key technology in the renewable energy sector. The training covers various topics, including techniques specific to solar thermal energy.
During the training session, participants will learn how to optimally size CES installations, individually or collectively, and master different schematic diagrams. They will also acquire skills in installation, commissioning, and maintenance. Additionally, the training will cover topics such as the solar resource and potential in Algeria, technologies of collectors and CES components, and dimensioning calculations.
The APRUE considers this training as an ideal opportunity for professionals to develop their expertise in the field of renewable energy. The agency had opened online registrations for the training, emphasizing its importance in reinforcing competencies and actively participating in the energy transition. The training is part of the APRUE's efforts to support various operators in different sectors.
In addition to the CES training, the APRUE is preparing another specialized training session on the management of captive fleets and eco-driving. This training, scheduled from September 27 to October 1, 2026, aims to accompany companies in optimizing their fleet management, controlling fuel consumption, and reducing operating costs. The program includes topics such as organization and management of captive fleets.
The eco-driving training session will cover techniques of eco-driving and road safety, as well as reduction of carbon footprint and sustainable development. The APRUE's objective is to develop the competencies of teams to improve fleet performance, reduce energy consumption, and adopt more sustainable mobility. The agency is committed to supporting different operators in various sectors.
The APRUE's efforts focus on sectors that are major energy consumers, such as the building sector. A specialized training session on building energy diagnosis was launched on September 13, 2026, targeting key players in this sector. The training focuses on analyzing building energy performance and finding sustainable and economical solutions. The APRUE's initiatives demonstrate its commitment to promoting energy efficiency and renewable energy in Algeria.
