Egypt’s Prime Minister Mostafa Madbouly met with representatives of INTRO Holding on Tuesday to discuss the development of the Kemet Data Centre, a significant project within the Suez Canal Economic Zone (SCZone). “The Kemet Data Centre is the first of its kind in the SCZone and will be a major leap forward for data centres in the region and globally,” he said. The SCZone’s Chairperson, Gamal El-Din, confirmed that the Kemet Data Centre is the first project in the zone aimed at exporting services while relying on renewable energy, making it a “Green Data Centre.” He attributed the swift agreement with INTRO Holding to the recently finalised regulations governing the establishment of data centres. The Kemet Data Center will be implemented in four phases, with each phase accommodating 2,500 data transfer cabinets, each with a power capacity of 20 megawatts. In response, INTRO Holding representatives pledged to accelerate the project’s completion within the timeframe set by the Prime Minister.
