About this plant

The Aswan High Dam Power Plant, situated at coordinates 23.9719, 32.8834 in Egypt, represents a monumental achievement in hydroelectric energy generation. With a capacity of 2100 MW, this facility is pivotal in the national energy mix, providing a substantial portion of Egypt’s electricity needs. The power plant harnesses the Nile River’s flow through a dam system, utilizing hydro technology to convert the kinetic energy of flowing water into electricity. This renewable energy source is not only clean but also sustainable, reflecting Egypt’s commitment to enhancing its energy landscape while mitigating environmental impacts. The Aswan High Dam has been instrumental in regulating the Nile’s water flow and supporting agricultural activities, thus contributing to the country’s economic stability. The operational context of the plant is particularly relevant given Egypt’s energy policies, which increasingly emphasize the importance of renewable energy. As the government looks to expand its energy generation capacity and improve energy security, the Aswan High Dam Power Plant remains a cornerstone of Egypt’s infrastructure, supporting both domestic energy needs and regional stability in energy supply.
