In 2011, Egypt started to operate its first CSP plant in El Kuraymat with almost 40 percent generated locally (REN21, 2013). However, the plant only produces 20 MW from solar power (DIE, 2012). On the other hand, solar PVs have an important role to play in the electrification of rural areas; Egypt has 15 MW of PV generated electricity.
Egypt has the potential to achieve sustainability by using solar energy to reduce reliance on non-renewable sources and promote a sustainable future.
