Egyptera delays announcement of WtE tariffs, possibly for two weeks

The Egyptian Electric Utility and Consumer Protection Agency (Egyptera) has delayed the announcement of the new feed-in tariff (FiT) rate for waste-to-energy (WtE) projects, Electricity Ministry sources tell Al Borsa. The meeting which would settle on the new FiT rate may be rescheduled for two weeks from now, according to the sources. Reports had emerged in January that the ministry agreed to set the FiT at EGP 1.30 per kWh, but they were never confirmed officially.
