Abstract: La relation « électricité-croissance » a fait l'objet de nombreuses études tant théoriques qu'empiriques. Ainsi, les tests de stationnarité et de cointégration effectués lors de ce travail, nous ont révélé l'existence d'une relation de long terme entre le développement du secteur de l'électricité mesuré par la puissance installée et la performance économique captée à travers le Produit Intérieur Brut.
