In July 2012 the Egyptian Solar Plan was approved in the Cabinet. It targets to install around 3,500 MW of solar power plants (2,800 MW CSP + 700 MW PV) by 2027. Private investment share of these installations is estimated for 67% through competitive bidding, feed-in tariff and third party access schemes. The incentives provided for wind energy projects will be applied for solar projects.
