Minister of Electricity and Renewable Energy, Mahmoud Esmat, outlined key targets during the BRICS Energy Ministers Conference, including the goal for renewable energy to comprise over 42 percent of Egypt's energy mix by 2040
Moreover, the Minister disclosed the implementation of solar energy projects amounting to 3,700 megawatts, including Abydos 1 and 2, SCATEC, and Masdar ventures.
Esmat emphasized that the existing combined capacity from wind and solar energy stands at approximately 4.6 gigawatts, while hydroelectric energy capacity currently reaches 2,832 megawatts.
The primary objective of this project is to establish a collaborative energy exchange system that takes advantage of the differing peak times and increased loads in both countries.
