On 2 November, the African Development Bank signed a US$66 million financing agreement for the first phase of Egypt’s Dandara solar project in Qena. The phase will deliver 500 MW of solar capacity and 100 MWh of battery storage, with an additional US$151 million in development-finance debt expected. The project is scheduled to become operational in early 2028.
The development creates opportunities for solar equipment manufacturers, battery suppliers, engineering contractors and grid-integration specialists. HPC can support infrastructure research, supplier partnerships and renewable-energy investment planning.
