Egypt is set to boost its electricity capacity by 750MW in the next few months through two renewable energy projects. The projects, with a total investment of $700 million, are expected to “significantly contribute to Egypt’s renewable energy goals.”The wind energy initiative will have a capacity of 250MW. The solar energy station will have a capacity of 500MW. The ministry noted that the implementation progress of the solar energy station in Kom Ombo has surpassed 75%. These include switching to using solar energy, recycling metals and water and using modern technologies to reduce waste and double production using the same resources.
