Algeria has announced a strategic partnership with Chinese automotive manufacturers to establish an electric vehicle (EV) production facility in Naâma Province, located in the southwestern region of the country. The project aims to diversify Algeria's industrial sector and reduce its reliance on hydrocarbon revenues, aligning with the nation's economic vision for sustainability and technological advancement.

Governor of Naâma Province, Lounes Bouzegza, met with a high-level Chinese delegation to discuss the launch of an integrated industrial complex for electric vehicles. The facility will be situated in the Harshaya industrial zone, which spans 150 hectares and is strategically located near major road and rail networks.

The project aims to produce 50,000 to 200,000 electric vehicles annually, meeting domestic demand and positioning Algeria as an exporter to African and European markets.

  • Geely is investing $200 million in an assembly plant expected to begin operations in 2026, with a capacity of 50,000 units per year.

Sinopec will bring advanced technologies to optimize operations, reinforcing Algeria's role in regional and international energy security.

Economic Diversification

These initiatives are part of Algeria's strategy to modernize its industrial sector, reduce dependency on hydrocarbons, and enhance economic sovereignty. By expanding collaboration with China, Algeria is driving technological advancement, creating local jobs, and promoting sustainable industries.
