Electricity Minister Mohamed Shaker met with high-level executives from the UK’s Atkins to discuss potential cooperation on renewable energy projects in Egypt. Atkins is particularly interested in wind, but also in waste and nuclear energy projects, according to Al Mal. This comes one day after news reports claimed that the electricity and environment ministries had agreed to set the feed-in tariff for waste-to-energy projects at EGP 1.30 per kWh produced from agricultural waste and EGP 1.60 per kWh produced from solid waste.
