Regarding efforts to expand renewable energy, Engineer Karim Badawi indicated that Egypt seeks to strengthen its position as a regional energy hub, leveraging its abundant solar, wind, and other clean energy resources.
He pointed out the successful completion of the Integrated and Sustainable Energy Strategy until 2040, which aims to increase the share of renewable energy in Egypt's energy mix to 42% by 2030 through the implementation of several projects, such as solar energy projects and wind power plants in the Gulf of Suez region.
