Technical FAQs 4

What are Egypt's hydropower plans?

According to the government, there are a lot of hydropower facilities to be upgraded. There are also studies and negotiations ongoing for a pumped storage plant (PSP Ataqa 2,100 MW). The official target is to achieve a generation of about 20% from renewables by 2020. ANDRITZ HYDRO has a long history in Egypt.

How many MW will a pumped storage plant produce in Egypt?

There are also studies and negotiations ongoing for a pumped storage plant (PSP Ataqa 2,100 MW). The official target is to achieve a generation of about 20% from renewables by 2020. ANDRITZ HYDRO has a long history in Egypt. First equipment deliveries took place in the early 1920s.

Does Egypt have a hydropower potential?

The government has struggled to meet the demands of Egypt’s rapidly growing population through economic reform and massive investments. Egypt has a technically feasible hydropower potential of about 50,000 GWh/year strongly depending on the Nile River, the flow, upstream requirements and irrigation needs.
