This research article, based on the latest market insights provided by CONTEXT, explores the evolving landscape of the Large Format Display (LFD) market in the Middle East, Türkiye, and Africa (META). As global economic pressures and technology shifts redefine visual display demand, the META region demonstrates resilience and emerging opportunities in contrast to a notable slowdown in the European market. CONTEXT's data highlights growth drivers such as increasing demand for interactive and high-brightness LFDs, investments in smart cities, and the expansion of Direct View LED applications. This paper contextualizes these regional trends and examines broader factors like semiconductor tariffs and rapid technological evolution shaping the industry's trajectory. The LFD market across the Middle East, Türkiye, and Africa (META) is currently undergoing a dynamic period, characterised by both challenges and opportunities. While the META region demonstrates specific areas of growth, the European market provides a contrasting perspective, with a noted slowdown in April. LFD market shows promise in META One area of particular interest in the META region is the Large Format Display (LFD) sector. The LFD industry has experienced some relief regarding US tariffs, although concerns remain about potential future tariffs on semiconductors. Notably, LFD activity picked up in March, moving closer to the performance levels seen in 2024. This resurgence is driven by several key factors: Interactive LFD demand: There's a notable increase in demand for interactive LFDs, fuelled by adoption in educational institutions, boardroom automation, and even religious tourism. This indicates a diversification of LFD applications beyond traditional commercial settings. High brightness LFDs: The need for high brightness LFDs is also on the rise, spurred by advertising requirements and the development of smart cities. As urban centres in the META region invest in digital infrastructure, the demand for displays that can perform in various lighting conditions is expected to grow. Direct view LED momentum: The Direct View LED segment continues to demonstrate solid momentum, albeit with slightly slower growth compared to 2024. Opportunities in entertainment venues and the burgeoning esports scene are contributing to this growth. Türkiye's surging LFD market A standout within the META region is Türkiye, where the LFD market is experiencing a surge in demand for both interactive displays and signage. This highlights the country's investment in digital display technologies across various sectors. European market: April slowdown and key trends While the META region sees growth in LFDs, the European LFD market experienced a slowdown in performance in April. The main factors shaping the market currently are: Continued decline of ASPs : Average Selling Prices (ASPs) for LFDs have seen some significant price drops since the beginning of the year, and this is mainly affecting the DV-LED and Signage markets. : Average Selling Prices (ASPs) for LFDs have seen some significant price drops since the beginning of the year, and this is mainly affecting the DV-LED and Signage markets. Interactive Woes: The end of EDU investment programmes in different countries is having a large impact on the Interactive Board category of LFDs. These displays, which are now a staple for classrooms in many schools and higher education establishments, have seen a -31% decline in April as a result. The end of EDU investment programmes in different countries is having a large impact on the Interactive Board category of LFDs. These displays, which are now a staple for classrooms in many schools and higher education establishments, have seen a -31% decline in April as a result. Tough Comparables: In April 2024 the LFD market grew by 33% YoY. Demand received a boost from preparations for the Olympic games in France and the UEFA Euro in Germany. However, this implies that achieving comparable growth in the second quarter of this year will present a considerable challenge. Broader trends and considerations Several overarching factors influence both the META and European LFD markets: Semiconductor tariffs: The potential impact of US tariffs on semiconductors remains a key concern. Since LFDs rely heavily on these components, any price fluctuations in semiconductors could ripple through the entire supply chain and affect pricing in both regions. Technological evolution: The rapid pace of technological change continues to shape the LFD market. Innovations such as smart glasses have the potential to disrupt traditional display technologies in the long run. Looking ahead The LFD market presents a complex picture, with growth areas in the META region's LFD sector contrasting with a recent slowdown in the European desktop LFD market. Global economic factors, technological advancements, and supply chain considerations will continue to play crucial roles in shaping the industry's trajectory..

EBRD supports Egypt with first private-to-private electricity contracts
Energy market reform is taking a major step forward in Egypt as the government approves the first bilateral power purchase agreements between private generators and consumers. As part of a pilot of the private-to-private (P2P) rules, developed with technical support from the EBRD to the Egyptian Electric Utility and Consumer Protection Regulatory Agency (Egypt ERA) and approved last year, four renewable energy projects with a combined capacity of 400 MW have been approved to contract directly with end-consumers of electricity. The four approved projects are: KarmSolar, which will develop a 100 MW solar plant to supply electricity to Suez Steel. AMEA Power, which is building a solar facility of the same size to serve BEFAR Group and the Suez Canal Container Terminal. TAQA PV, which will install 100 MW of hybrid capacity (solar and wind) to power operations at Ezz Steel. Enara, developing a hybrid plant to deliver 100 MW to the El Alamein Silicone Products Company and Helwan Fertilizers. The P2P rules set out the conditions under which generators can use the power grid to sell electricity directly to consumers, a major departure from the existing single-buyer model and a significant step forward in Egypt's efforts to liberalise its electricity market – a goal set out in the 2015 Electricity Law. This approach introduces competition into the electricity sector, expands consumer choice and promotes private investments in renewable energy. It also introduces a path for Egyptian businesses, especially those that are energy-intensive and focused on the export market, to sign agreements directly with renewable energy producers that are increasingly required to prove their low carbon product credentials, for example green hydrogen destined for the European market. Furthermore, given the electricity generation under these contracts will be entirely privately financed, the P2P scheme represents an important route for Egypt to scale up electricity production without the need for government contracts. Mark Davis, the EBRD's managing director for the southern and eastern Mediterranean region, said: 'This milestone shows how the right regulatory framework can unlock private investment and drive the energy transition. By enabling companies to procure green electricity directly from producers, Egypt is opening new opportunities for industry and enhancing its competitiveness. We are proud to have supported EgyptERA in designing this pioneering scheme and will continue working closely as projects move towards implementation.' Dr Mohamed Mousa Omran, the chairman of EgyptERA, said: 'This pilot marks an important step towards a more competitive electricity market in Egypt. By enabling direct agreements between producers and consumers, we are creating space for the private sector to play a greater role in meeting the growing demand for clean energy in Egypt. This is essential for accelerating the deployment of renewables at scale and achieving our long-term energy goals.' The EBRD's technical support is generously funded by the Swiss State Secretariat for Economic Affairs (SECO), a key partner for the Bank in many of its ongoing policy engagements that aim to decarbonise the energy sectors of its countries of operation. This work is being delivered under the EBRD's Renewable Energy Programme, which is currently supporting 16 countries in their development of market-based mechanisms to mobilise private investments. To date, activities under this programme have delivered over 8,500 MW of renewable energy capacity being awarded in 8 countries.
