Solar Project in Egypt

Egypt has significant potential for solar energy generation, receiving 2,800 to 3,200 hours of sunshine annually, making it an ideal location for solar power. The government aims to increase renewable energy supply to 20% by 2022 and 42% by 2035, with specific contributions from wind, hydro, and solar sources. By 2035, Egypt plans to produce 61,000MW of renewable energy, including 31,000MW from solar power.

there is high potential for electricity generation through solar PV

plants in Egypt. The country, on average, receives about 2,800 to 3,200


hours of sunshine annually. The country receives solar irradiation of 1970-
3200 kWh/m2 annually. This makes it one of the best locations in the world
to harness solar power

What are the plans of the Egyptian Government towards wind


energy?
Egypt intends to increase the supply of electricity generated from
renewable sources to 20% by 2022 and 42% by 2035, with wind
providing 14 percent, hydro power 2 percent, photovoltaic (PV)
22 percent, and concentrating solar power (CSP) 3 percent by
2035.

Are there solar panels in Egypt?


Solar panel cost Egypt: Prices & data 2022. As of Jun 2022, the average cost of solar
panels in Egypt is $2.54 per watt making a typical 6000 watt (6 kW) solar system
$11,261 after claiming the 26% federal solar tax credit now available.
