10. Global Wind Energy
Wind energy continued its growth in at an increased rate of %.
All wind turbines installed by the end of worldwide are generating
per annum, equaling more than % of the global electricity TWh
consumption.
The wind sector became a global job generator and has created ’
jobs worldwide.
The wind sector represented in a turnover of billion !.

EMA EMA

21. Wind Atlas for Egypt,
Egypt enjoys excellent wind
regimes, particularly in the Suez
Gulf where the average wind speed
reaches m/sec.
The wind energy resource is available
in large regions on the Nile banks in
the Eastern and Western Desert and
parts of Sinai.

22. Large Scale Wind Farms
- Since , series of large scale wind farms, totaling
about MW in cooperation with Germany, Denmark,
Spain and Japan.
- Key Indicators:
- Generated Electricity: ~ Billion kWh,
- Fuel Saving: ~ T.O.E.,
- Emissions Reduction: ~ Million T.CO

23. MW, in Cooperation with Denmark, planned to be operated in

24. Achievements

25. National Strategy up to
•In February , the Supreme Council of Energy approved an
ambitious plan to:
Satisfy of the generated electricity by renewable energies by
, including from wind energy,
i.e., reaching more than MW grid-connected wind farms
(about MW wind farms annually).
NREA
Private
Developers

26. Policy
A policy to foster the increasing of wind energy contribution consists
of two phases:
Phase ,
• Will adopt Competitive Bids approach through issuing tenders
internationally requesting private sector to supply power from wind
energy projects for a period of years.
Phase ,
• Feed-in-tariff system will be applied taking into consideration the
prices achieved in phase .

27. FINANCING SCHEMES
FOR
WIND PROJECTS IN EGYPT

28. FINANCING SCHEMES FOR WIND PROJECTS IN EGYPT
. Grant Scheme
Grant scheme applied for the pioneer and
demonstration wind projects erected in Hurghada, in
co-operation with USA, Denmark, and Germany. In
addition to the first commercial large scale wind farm
at Zafarana, MW in co-operation with DANIDA. In
this scheme local works such as civil works, and local
transportation had been financed by NREA.
. Self-Finance/Grant Scheme
In this scheme the maximum share of grants didn't
exceed of the total project investment. This
regime has been applied for three large-scale wind
farms in co-operation with DANIDA and KfW, with
MW total capacity.

29. FINANCING SCHEMES FOR WIND PROJECTS …. Cont.
. Self-Finance Scheme
Self-Finance Scheme; has been applied for NREA-
Spanish, NREA-Japanese, NREA-KfW, and NREA-
DANIDA projects , , , and MW.
Foreign loans applied for the second or the third
financing schemes vary between soft, mixed credit, and
commercial loans. Meanwhile, local loans offered from
the Egyptian National Investment Bank, NIB, are
commercial loans.
