The project was completed in 2015. Egypt aims to generate 42% of its electricity from renewable sources by 2035. and the country's wind energy and solar potential is moving the country towards the goal.
The 37km2 park has been connected to Egypt’s National Grid since 2019 and was developed in line the Egyptian New and Renewable Energy Authority’s agenda. The project comprises 41 solar power plants and was built to the tune of $4 billion by 30 companies. Gabal Al-Zait: 580 MW Wind Farm
In 1993, Egypt started the wind power program to generate electricity when the government established in Hurghada a 5 MW pilot wind farm (Hussein, Abokersh, Kost, & Schlegl, 2016). Figure 2 shows the electricity generated from wind energy during 2000/2001-2020/2021.
As of the 3rd quarter of FY 2020/2021, Egypt has about 1,375 MW of wind power plants in operation mainly by NREA and one project by the private sector producing around 250 MW. There is 1623 MW of PV energy installed and 140 MW of CSP.
Solar power projects in Egypt. Table 1 summarizes the three major solar power projects in Egypt, which are the Beneban Solar Park, the Siwa Solar Plant, and the Kuraymat Concentrated Solar Power (CSP) plant.
Egypt’s wind-generated power capacity is expected to reach 7 GW by 2022, making it an important contributor to the renewable energy mix. Since 2001, a series of large-scale wind farms with a total capacity of 1.2 GW were established in cooperation with Germany (KFW), Denmark (DANIDA), Spain (Siemens Gamesa), and Japan (JICA).
