UN Aids Local Solar Manufacturing in Egypt

UN Aids Local Solar Manufacturing in Egypt

In a welcome bid to promote solar energy use in Egypt’s industrial sector, the UN Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO) has initiated a project to boost local solar manufacturing capacity in Egypt.

Funded by the Global Environment Facility (GEF), the UN-backed project will support the local manufacturing of solar energy systems and components for use in Egyptian chemical, agro-food, and textile industries.

Mounir Fakhry Abdel Nour, Egypt’s Minister of Industry, Trade, and Small and Medium Size Enterprises, and UNIDO Director General LI Yong attended the official inauguration ceremony for the project. The new UNIDO project was formally launched last month in Egypt, coinciding with the nation’s first ever Economic Development Conference.
