Egypt’s electricity and renewable energy minister, Mahmoud Esmat, said that deploying battery storage was central to the country’s strategy to maximise renewable energy potential. The project is meamt to meet peak energy demand and stabilise the grid as more solar and wind power is added.
By the end of 2024, Egypt had a total of 35 substations of 48,000 MVA capacity—compared to 18 substations of 9.800 MVA total 500 KV capacity in 2014. There are seven existing grid control centers, and the government is adding six more, two of which were completed in early 2025.
As part of the country’s plan to become an energy hub, Egypt has constructed several energy interconnectors and will continue to do so with neighboring countries. There is one interconnector with Jordan with a capacity of 450 MW, which is expected to increase to 1,110 MW.
The Ministry of Electricity and Renewable Energy increased Egypt’s transmission grids from 2,364 kilometers of total length of 500 KV grid in 2014 to 8,250 kilometers by the end of 2024. By the end of 2024, Egypt had a total of 35 substations of 48,000 MVA capacity—compared to 18 substations of 9.800 MVA total 500 KV capacity in 2014.
