Technical FAQs 4

Does Egypt have wind power?

With its advantageous conditions to harness solar and wind power, Egypt recognises renewable energy as a pivotal factor for its economic growth. The country possesses considerable wind energy potential, particularly in the Gulf of Suez area, where stable wind speeds average 8m-10m per second at a height of 100m.

Why is Egypt investing in wind energy?

Egypt’s focus on wind energy is part of a broader strategy to diversify its energy sources and enhance energy security. In addition to wind energy, Egypt is also investing heavily in solar power. By 2026, the country plans to install 5.6 GW of new solar energy capacity.

How much wind energy will Egypt have by 2026?

According to Energy Business Review, the Egyptian government has already secured $3.5 billion in investments for wind energy projects. These projects will add 6.4 GW of new wind capacity by 2026, more than doubling the current wind capacity in the country.

Is Egypt investing in solar power?

In addition to wind energy, Egypt is also investing heavily in solar power. By 2026, the country plans to install 5.6 GW of new solar energy capacity. This will significantly increase the share of solar power in the national energy mix.
