Exhibition Introduction
Egypt Energy was formerly known as:electricx, the most important B2B energy event in Egypt and North Africa, is strongly supported by the Ministry of Electricity and Renewable Energy. With 30 years of industry history, the event has become a go-to destination for EPC contractors, ** entities, utilities, investors, consultants, and energy professionals in the region. Egypt Energy showcased its leading products in the fields of power generation, energy storage and energy management systems. It also features high and low voltage cables, energy transmission and distribution solutions, solar panels, solar energy, and green energy innovations. As a trusted platform for brand recognition and development, it attracts thousands of industry professionals each year, eager to discover cutting-edge products, breakthrough technologies, and forward-thinking solutions to propel their projects into the future.
The 2023 theme, "Driving Sustainability and Progress in the Industry," shaped the leadership conference narrative, which included stories of thought leaders who were developing and implementing strategies to successfully catalyze the energy transition and guide energy efficiency projects, while ensuring adequate energy generation to meet future needs.

Power storage over the next decade seeks high investment to adapt to the latest technologies to successfully integrate into traditional energy infrastructure and serve power demand around the clock.
Introduction to the host city
Cairo's economic tradition is largely based on institutions and services, and the modern industrial sector has expanded in the 20th century. As of 2005, Egypt had the largest non-oil GDP in the Arab world. In terms of agriculture, in addition to the cultivation of unique crops such as onions and sesame, the development of cotton and other textile industries and food processing is also prosperous, especially sugar cane.
Cairo accounts for 11% of Egypt's population and 22% of its national economy. Most of the country's businesses, including publishing houses, institutions, film studios, etc., are located in Cairo, and half of the country's hospital beds and universities are also located here. This gave impetus to the rapid construction of Cairo.
Industry analysis
There are currently 60 countries and territories in Africa. Geographically, it can be divided into North, East, West, Central and Southern Africa. We analysed a total of 48 countries in five regions with good prospects for electricity market development, with the largest electricity markets in Africa. The total area of the 48 countries studied is 293960,000k, accounting for 97 percent of Africa's total area3%;Population 105.5 billion people, or 99% of Africa's total population7%;GDP in 2014 totaled 20,057900 million US dollars, accounting for 98 percent of Africa's total economy9%;The average economic growth rate is about 80%, and the per capita GDP is about $1,902.
Africa's power industry is mainly concentrated in South Africa and several countries in North Africa (Egypt, Libya, Algeria, Morocco, etc.), which account for more than 3.4 percent of Africa's electricity generation, and are mainly thermal power. The power industry in other countries is basically supported by small and medium-sized hydropower, and the scale of the power grid is also small. Africa as a whole uses less than 500 kWh of electricity per capita per year, and many countries are less than 100 kWh. Only South Africa, Egypt, Tunisia, Libya, Algeria, Morocco, Zimbabwe, Mauritius, Ghana, Côte d'Ivoire and Nigeria have electrified more than 30% of African countries, and many countries have less than 10% electrification, and their power systems are yet to be developed.
The African power system is mainly divided into five parts, namely the North African Power Consortium (COMELEC), the East African Electricity Consortium (EAPP), the Central African Regional Power Consortium (CAPP), the West African Power Consortium (CWAPP) and the Southern African Power Union (SAPPY). In addition, island countries such as Mauritius, Madagascar and Cape Verde operate independent power grids.
Relative to the global average of 412 watts, Egypt is severely underpowered**. The contribution of low-carbon energy sources in Egypt is smaller, with hydropower generating 1407 trillion watt hours, solar power 505 trillion watt hours, wind power 423 trillion watt hours. There is great potential for the development of the power grid, but not enough attention has been paid to investment in the energy sector, which has affected the development of low-carbon energy in Egypt.
