Egypt implements solar power, conservation measures at new government hub

Egyptian Prime Minister Mostafa Madbouly has reviewed new measures to reduce electricity consumption at the Government District in the New Administrative Capital, where a solar power system has now been activated across all government buildings and connected to the national grid. During a meeting on Monday, Madbouly stated that improving electricity efficiency must coincide with the operation of new and renewable energy projects to reduce reliance on traditional fuels. The meeting was attended by Minister of Electricity and Renewable Energy Mahmoud Esmat, Deputy Head of the Armed Forces Engineering Authority Maj. Gen. Mohamed Sayed, and other officials. Cabinet Spokesperson Mohamed El-Homossany said the prime minister was briefed on a detailed plan to rationalise electricity use in the ministries and government bodies located in the new district. According to the Ministry of Electricity, the plan includes several key procedures for government buildings. These involve completely shutting off power after official working hours, replacing all non-efficient light bulbs with LED alternatives, and raising employee awareness about the importance of conservation as part of the government's efforts to ensure a sustainable electricity supply. Ahmed Fahmy, General Manager at the Administrative Capital for Urban Development company, confirmed the solar power system is now fully operational. He added that the solar panels undergo routine cleaning twice a month by the district's operations and maintenance alliance to ensure they maintain high productivity. Minister of Electricity Mahmoud Essmat noted that the Egyptian Electricity Holding Company has been directed to implement an urgent action plan to rationalise energy use across the entire sector. He said that public cooperation could significantly lower consumption rates and reduce dependence on conventional fuels. The minister clarified that raising awareness about conservation is a shared responsibility and 'does not mean an inability to provide electricity.' He also highlighted ongoing, round-the-clock coordination with the Ministry of Petroleum and Mineral Resources to secure the country's power supply, alongside efforts to enhance other renewable energy projects.
