Zafarana 50 MW Grid Connected PV Power Plant
Egypt’s demand for electricity is growing rapidly because of rapid urbanisation and economic growth. The need to develop alternative power resources is becoming ever more urgent. Alternative energy options such as PV can help meet the increasing demand. NREA has set strategic targets to supply 20% of the electric energy demand form RE sources by the year 2022. In response to the government’s request, KfW cooperated with NREA on the identification and financing of a solar power plant with an installed capacity of 50 MW to be built in Zafarana.
NREA assigned intec to support their project implementation team and to supervise the PV plant procurement, construction as well as its operation and maintenance during the five year warranty period.
