First: Sector Conditions Prior to
June 2014
The
total capacity deficit was about 6050 MW during the summer during some days of
August 2014))
Aging
of power plants, where the percentage of stations with a life span of more than
20 years about 35 percent of the total stations, 18.5 percent of the stations
are greater than 10 years and less than 20 years
The
sector has been unable to provide the required fuel for power plants
the inability to implement the maintenance programs of the generation units, where
not more than 72.3 percent of the capacity of the intended maintenance targets
was achieved with maintenance of lines and transformer stations
The
existence of a large number of network bottlenecks and low efforts in many areas
Lack of sufficient funding to overcome problems on the grid Low rates of
collection and high rates of loss and increasing cases of theft of electricity ,
as the value of electricity stolen during the month of June 2014 about 66 million
pounds The facilities and
tasks of the national electricity gride were subjected to attacks, terrorist
attacks and sabotage in the wake of January 2011, until the cost of energy lost
as a result of these attacks amounted to about 642 million dollars and about 200
million Egyptian pounds
Second: The volume of efforts and achievements in the period
from June 2014 to June 2018
In
the field of electricity production
Over
25 thousand MW of conventional energy and renewable energies are added during
this period, which exceeds the capacity available in 2013/2014 and is
equivalent to about 12 times the capacity of the High Dam with a total
investment cost of LE 278.4 billion
Traditional energy
The
size of the achievement achieved in the production of electric power was
divided into several work axes
Completion
of the project of power plants with a total capacity of 4075 at a cost of $ 3.75
billion
Implementing
an urgent plan to add 3636 megawatts of electricity with a total cost of 2.7 billion
dollars
The
establishment of new power plants in cooperation with Siemens (Beni Suef, El
Borolos, the new administrative capital) with a total investment cost of 6 billion
euros in addition to the cost of the sites
Helwan
power plant with capacity of 1300 MW of the total capacity of the station 1950 MW
and the cost of investment $ 1.053 billion
The
rehabilitation and upgrading of the existing generation plants and the
improvement of the operation efficiency of a number of stations were also carried
out as follows
The
units of the urgent gas plan and the 6th of October to operate the complex
cycle system (stations, youth, West Damietta, October 6, Assiut, West Damietta
expansion) to add the total capacity of 1000 MW
Upgrading and upgrading of 6 gas turbines at stations North Cairo,
Alatf, Sidi Kreir)
Raising
the efficiency of the generation plant in Al-Walid Al-Walidiya in Assiut (2 × 312)
MW
New and renewable energy
The
construction of a 200 MW wind power plant at Jabal El-Zeit at a cost of 218 million
Euros
Project
to increase the capacity of the Jebel El Zayt 1 plant with a capacity of 40 megawatts
with a total investment of 34.75 million euros + 73 million Egyptian pounds
The
project of generating electricity from wind power in Jabal El-Zeit with a
capacity of 220 MW with a total investment of 188.7 million euros + 308.6 million
Egyptian pounds
A
project to generate electricity from wind power in Jabal El-Zeit with a
capacity of 120 megawatts with total investments of 85.6 million euros + 325.5 million
Egyptian pounds
The
establishment of 8 solar power plants with a total capacity of 32 MW, as well
as the installation of independent solar cell systems for 211 villages and a
total of 6,943 homes
Asyut
power plant with a total capacity of 32 megawatts at an investment cost of LE 747
million
Solar
power plant with a total capacity of 50 megawatts FIT system at a cost of about
60 million dollars
In
the field of electricity transmission and distribution networks
The
total capacity of the 23,815 MVA substations has been added at a total cost of
LE 12.2 billion, including (7) 500 kV transformer stations, in addition to (10)
transformer stations on the same voltage, Network before 2014 and 18 stations
A
total of 9078 MVA capacity has been added to the total capacity of (66 KV) with
a total cost of LE 2.7 billion compared to 2014 with a total capacity of 46 thousand
MVA
The
length of the lines and cables of high voltage (500, 220 kV) was added with a
total length of 5343 km with a total cost of 21.3 billion pounds compared to
the existing network in 2014 with a total length of 22.93 thousand km
The
length of the lines and cables of high voltage (66 kV) was added with a total
length of 1479.4 km with a total cost of LE 700 million compared to the
existing network in 2014 with total lengths of 21.3 thousand km with a total
investment of LE 36.9 billion
Implementation
of the work of the plan to strengthen electricity distribution networks by
adding (lengths of medium voltage lines and cables, low voltage lines and
cables, distribution panels, distribution transformers, ...) at an investment
cost of about LE 4527 million
Convert
medium voltage lines passing the highest buildings in the most dangerous areas
to earth cables and modify their path to preserve the lives of citizens at an
investment cost of LE 1 billion
Activating
the automation of services for 487 service centers and outsourcing the
complaints and communications center for citizens on Hotline 121 to a specialized company in this fieldImprove Egypt's
ranking in the electricity access index from 145th in 2015 to 89th in 2017Egypt' ranking in the Global Competitiveness Index Quality Index
