energy projects in Egypt. 900MWh battery energy storage systems (BESS). Dubai, United Arab Emirates; September 12th, 2024: AMEA Power, one of the fastest-growing renewable energy companies, signs Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs) to develop largest solar PV in Africa and first utility-scale battery energy storage system in Egypt.
In a separate announcement, Norway’s Scatec said it had signed a 25-year PPA with Egyptian Electricity Transmission Co. (EETC) for a 1 GW solar and 100 MW/200 MWh battery storage hybrid project in Egypt. “This will be the first hybrid solar and battery project in Egypt,” said Scatec CEO Terje Pilskog.
Earlier this year, state-owned utility Egyptian Electricity Holding Co. held an expressions-of-interest tender for the design, construction and operation of a 8.2 MW solar plant and 2 MW/4MWh battery energy storage system, which would be built at the site of an existing microgrid in western Egypt.
The first project involves a 1 GW solar plant with a 600 MWh BESS in the Benban area. The second project is a 300 MWh BESS at the site of Amea Power’s 500 MW Abydos solar array, which is currently under construction. Both projects are in Egypt’s Aswan governorate.
