NREA to select winning offer for 26 MW Kom Ombo solar plant next month

The New and Renewable Energy Authority (NREA) is expected to announce next month the winner of the bid to construct the EUR 40 mn 26 MW solar power plant in Kom Ombo, NREA sources tell Al Mal. Five companies, including an unnamed Egyptian firm, Spain’s TSK Group, Nari Solar Energy Technology, Sterling and Wilson, TBEA, and Shanghai Electric all qualified for the project. Sources had previously claimed the last three companies were disqualified from the tender for failing to submit their paperwork on time. Work on the project should begin before June’s end.
