Can Egypt harness energy from sustainable sources?

This review summarises the current energy outlook of Egypt while analysing the country's potential to harness energy from sustainable sources. In general, it has been found that Egypt's renewable energy sector is yet to be exploited for sustainable energy production through its diverse and plentiful resources.

Does Egypt need a bioenergy system?

signicantly to fullling Egypt s growing energy demand. Although the bioenergy technologies across Egypt. Biomass production should contribute to up to 3% of the electricity production in Egypt by 2035. Decentralized rice straw gasication is a promising technology. heat or industrial demands ( Korberg et al., 2021 ). In this regard, the

Where in Egypt can a hybrid energy system be used?

Several researchers have conducted thorough in- energy in different locations in Egypt. friendly touristic village in Egypt based on a hybrid RE system. The Qena, Alexandria, Giza and Luxor. As they found, Alexandria is the most diesel/battery systems. Meanwhile, Aswan was found to be the most economical city for hybrid PV/diesel/battery systems.

Can Egypt achieve 42% of its energy generation capacity by 2035?

At present, Egypt has set an ambitious objective of achieving 42% of its energy generation capacity from renewable sources by 2035 (known as the 2035 energy target) (IRENA, 2018b). To better exploit the RE potential in Egypt, a few review studies have covered different aspects of RE technologies.

Does Egypt still rely on conventional energy sources?

According to the rate of increase in the consumption of conventional energy sources in Egypt alongside the CO 2 emissions over the period from 1971 to 2016 (for 47 years as shown in Fig. 1) (The world bank, 2022), it is evident that Egypt is still relying primarily on the conventional energy resources. Fig. 1.

Can Egypt transition from conventional to re energy resources?

This should allow for carrying out an energy transition from conventional to RE resources in Egypt; where a similar analysis has been carried out in Iran and allowed for developing five different energy systems focusing on the underlying RE production and efficiency improvements (Noorollahi et al., 2021).
