EETC invites seven companies to Egyptian-Saudi electric line tender

The Egyptian Electricity Transmission Company (EETC) has invited seven companies to participate in the new tender for the construction of Egypt’s electricity interconnection project with Saudi Arabia, according to the local press. The companies include Elsewedy Electric, China’s State Grid Corporation, Kalpataru Power Transmission, Hyundai, NCC Power Projects, L&T Power, and KEC International. The EETC will accept offer submissions for the next two months. An initial tender was scrapped after the electric line plan was changed due to Saudi Arabia’s addition of its futuristic city project, Neom.
