expected ROI of off grid solar storage project in Egypt 2030

Will solar power prices reach grid parity?

This trend will continue to increase as solar power prices reach grid parity. In , the global estimated additions of solar photovoltaic (PV) reached almost 138 GW (Figure 1). Within the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region, the increased industrial activity and drive towards renewables is reflected in each country’s strategy.

What are the challenges of a solar PV/RO system?

Two main challenges were identified with this system: (i) the first challenge is the intermittent and variable solar power demands the installation of batteries in some remote areas, and (ii) the second challenge is the battery cost that adds to the PV/RO system results in a water cost of 5.6–9.3 LE/m3 (Abo Zaid, ).

Which areas in Egypt are suitable for solar desalination?

The remaining 58.4% of the land was classified with low suitability for solar desalination plants. Upper Egypt's big cities, including Asuit, Sohag, Aswan, Qena, ElKharga oasis and Toshka are gifted with the highest potential for groundwater solar desalination, as indicated in Fig. 7.
