FDI is concentrated in the oil and gas industry (around three-quarters of total investments), followed by real estate, manufacturing, financial services and construction. The International Finance Corporation (IFC) believes that EGP 2 Trillion are required to brought into Egypt’s energy sector in climate-smart investments by 2030.
Egypt’s wind-generated power capacity is expected to reach 7 GW by 2022, making it an important contributor to the renewables energy mix. According to EY, Egypt currently has about 500MW of wind-power plants in operation, plus three privately owned independent power producers (IPPs) with a generation capacity of 2.5GW.
The International Finance Corporation (IFC) believes that EGP 2 Trillion are required to brought into Egypt’s energy sector in climate-smart investments by 2030. Egypt is expected to overtake South Africa in the next decade to become the largest electricity market in Africa.
The minister added that Egypt is currently working to establish centres to control the electrical network with investments of EGP 5.4 billion (US$ 344 million), which come in addition to a global control centre at the New Administrative Capital (NAC); the electrical power plant is the largest of its kind in the world.
Egypt is working hard in the direction of promoting electrical interconnection projects, which plays an important role in enhancing energy security and increasing the use of renewable energy in the medium and long term.
In 2015, the Ministry of Petroleum said it would require an investment of around EGP 1.9 Trillion to revamp the energy sector by 2022, including EGP 394 billion in new investment. Gas development would make up around EGP 339 billion, or a third of spending.
