EGYPT has successfully added 2 000 megawatts of renewable energy, comprising solar and wind power, to its national electricity grid. This is reported by Sada El-Balad, a partner of TV BRICS. Latest analysis from GlobalData expects Egypt's annual solar additions to reach above 2 GW over the next three years, increasing to above 3. Egypt added around 800 MW. Egypt has revised its targets upward, now aiming to generate 42 percent of electricity from renewable sources by 2030 and over 60 percent by 2040, leveraging wind, hydropower, photovoltaic solar, and emerging technologies such as green hydrogen. It adopts an ambitious strategy to diversify energy sources, rely on renewable energy, improve energy efficiency, and work to reduce carbon emissions, lower production costs, and ensure. While green hydrogen initially was represented as a solution for energy decline, real progress during the year came from solar and wind deployment, institutional reform, and a national expansion strategy that increasingly prioritizes domestic integration. 9 kWh/m2 per day, distributed on the South Sinai Peninsula. Egypt reduced its fuel consumption in June from an initially planned 142 million cubic metres of gas.
