He also outlined ongoing efforts to stabilize electricity supply during the summer, including continuous monitoring of electricity companies' preparations for maintenance programs and timelines for adding new capacities, with additional steps studied to strengthen the unified grid to accommodate new capacities. Regarding interconnection projects, Essmat highlighted significant progress in the electricity link with Italy, which has received approval to connect to the internal network. 'Discussions are ongoing to expedite the interconnection project between the two countries and increase the participation of Italian companies in sector projects, particularly in renewable energy, to maximize the benefits of clean energy.' The minister also updated the premier on progress in the electricity interconnection with Greece, emphasizing the project's importance for sustainable development and its role in Egypt's broader strategy to connect its grid with neighboring countries.
