As of 2025, 32 Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs) have been signed with private developers to generate 1,465 megawatts (MW) of renewable energy, with additional agreements underway. Egypt continues to promote the “Build, Own, Operate” (BOO) model to attract foreign investment and accelerate deployment of solar and wind projects.
In fact, it is one of the most populated countries on the African continent, which lead to its energy needs increasing. Moreover, the whole Egyptian population had access to a reliable energy sources since 2015. In more recent years, due to energy blackouts, the government set a plan to diversify and invest more in the sector.
Over the first 10 months of 2023, Egypt's electricity production reached 188.3 megawatts per hour (MW/h), with consumption totaling 145.7 terawatt hours (TWh). Around 77% of the electricity generated was consumed domestically, with the remaining directed towards exports, primarily to Libya and Jordan, which together accounted for USD 116.2 million.
