Norway''s Scatec on 13 March said it had signed a 25-year power purchase agreement (PPA) with offtaker Egypt Aluminium (EA) for a giga-scale solar PV and battery energy storage system (Bess) plant. According to
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.
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 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.
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 expected to overtake South Africa in the next decade to become the largest electricity market in Africa. The country has pledged to produce 20% of its electricity consumption from low-carbon sources by 2022, with 12% coming from wind.
The first project involves a 1 GW solar plant with a 600 MWh BESS in the Benban area. The second project is a 300 MWh BESS at the site of Amea Power’s 500 MW Abydos solar array, which is currently under construction. Both projects are in Egypt’s Aswan governorate.
