Abstract
Institutions & Energy Policy
Two ministries share the main responsibility for the energy sector: the Ministry of Petroleum (MOP), which oversees the hydrocarbon sector and holds participation in state-owned oil & gas companies, and the Ministry of Electricity and Renewable Energy (MERE), which supervises several agencies, including the New & Renewable Energy Authority, the Nuclear Power Plants Authority and the Hyd
Energy Companies
Electricity:
EEHC (Egyptian Electricity Holding Company) is the state-owned electric utility.
Energy Supply
Oil:
Oil production has declined by 11% since 2014, of which 2.6% in 2019 to 31 Mt. Production is concentrated in the Western Desert (56%) and the Gulf of Suez (20%) (2018).
Energy Prices
Electricity:
As part of the IMF bailout, the Government increased electricity tariffs by 30% in 2016, 40% in 2017, 26% in 2018, and 20% in 2019. The Egyptian government increased electricity prices from 17 to 30% based on consumption from 1 July 2020. The country extended the plan to end electricity subsidies until the 2024-2025 fiscal year.
Energy Consumption
Energy consumption per capita stands at 0.93 toe, including 1 600 kWh of electricity (2019).
The country's overall consumption increased by 1% in 2018 and 2019 after growing by more than 8% in 2016 and 2017. It grew by 1%/year between 2010 and 2015, after a 6%/year increase over 2000-2010.

Issues & Prospects
Electricity:
Egypt aims to boost its capacity by up to 30 GW by 2025, 8 GW of which should come from renewables. EEHC plans to add 13 GW of thermal capacity totalling $20bn in investments between 2022 and 2027.
In 2016, the Ministry prepared a long-term strategy aimed at investing up to US$135bn to provide 51 GW of electricity until 2035.
