The International Finance Corporation (IFC) believes that EGP 2 Trillion are required to brought into Egypt’s energy sector in climate-smart investments by 2030. Egypt is expected to overtake South Africa in the next decade to become the largest electricity market in Africa.
The government of Egypt invested around EGP 24 billion (around USD 1.5 billion) in the distribution grid between 2017 and 2020. It currently needs around EGP 19.5 billion (USD 1.2 billion) to upgrade its distribution networks. The government is also working on modernizing 47 distribution control centers around the country.
From December 2015 to December 2018, a total of 28229 MW was added to the grid, resulting in a total installed capacity of 55 GW, including both conventional and renewable energy sources. This has been achieved through a fast-track project that worked on installing 3636 MW of electricity in 8.5 months and is worth USD 2.7 billion.
In 2015, the Ministry of Petroleum said it would require an investment of around EGP 1.9 Trillion to revamp the energy sector by 2022, including EGP 394 billion in new investment. Gas development would make up around EGP 339 billion, or a third of spending.
