Egyptian Ministry of Electricity and Energy through the New and Renewable Energy Authority (NREA)Ort
Beschreibung
The project concerns the studies, design, construction, commissioning and operation of a large-size (up to 200 MWe) onshore windfarm. The site of a size of about 36 km² is characterised by very favourable wind resources (expected load factor ~45%) from mainly the north-west direction. The project is part of a larger national programme in the same region to further expand power generation from renewable energy in Egypt. Co-financing with other European institutions is envisaged.
Ziele
The project will contribute to meet growing electricity demand using sustainable wind energy resources. The project is fully in line with the strategic objectives set for the external mandate in general (environmental sustainability, climate change mitigation), and for the FEMIP mandate in particular (energy, EU regional and common interest). The project contributes to the development of renewable energy in Egypt, one of the stated objectives of the country’s energy policy. The operation will also contribute to the Bank’s priority energy lending objectives related to renewable energy and external energy security and economic development.
