He highlighted the importance of meeting growing developmental and consumption needs, optimising Egypt’s available resources, and seizing promising investment opportunities—particularly in electricity generation from new and renewable energy sources. El-Homsany added that the meeting considered energy projects offered under the government’s asset offering programme, which aims to boost private sector participation across various economic activities, accelerate development projects, and attract more domestic and foreign investment into the energy sector. The meeting also reviewed existing cooperation and partnerships with international companies involved in implementing large-scale renewable energy projects in Egypt. These partnerships are expected to facilitate knowledge transfer and support the achievement of targeted objectives for increasing the share of new and renewable energy in the national energy mix. The Prime Minister emphasised that expanding renewable energy capacity remains a strategic priority, forming a key component of Egypt’s broader vision for sustainable development and long-term energy security.
