Egypt has the objective to increase its share of renewable energy to 22% of the total energy consumption by 2020.

NREA has recently awarded the winning consortiums projects for round one of their Feed In Tariff (FIT) solar programme and are moving ahead with round two of project development.

The PPAS for round two are moving forward with letters of commitment submitted by developers and with a final proposal submission deadline in October 2017.

Solar Projects Egypt is a specialised conference discussing strategy, project design and delivery of solar FIT programme for round 1 and 2.

The conference is organised by Advanced Conferences & Meetings and will be held on 9-10 October 2017 in Cairo, Egypt.

Great opportunity - billions of dollars invested in Egypt renewable energy projects
2.3 GW of Egypt's power will be generated by photovoltaic energy in the next couple of years. Therefore Egypt’s New and Renewable Energy Authority (NREA) has allocated around US$ 440 million for renewable energy projects for 2017/2018.

6 billion-riyal (US$ 1.6 billion) is the worth of the agreement that have been signed between Saudi Arabia and Egypt to link their electricity grids.

Why take part in Solar Projects Egypt conferenceæ
Solar Projects Egypt conference will bring the value chain to discuss updates in the Egyptian energy sector and of course the new PPAs that are up for tender.
