Electricity Ministry to launch tender to establish new capital control center

The Electricity Ministry will soon launch a tender for a smart national control center in the new administrative capital, ministry sources told Al Mal. China’s State Grid Corporation, Germany’s Siemens, Switzerland’s ABB, and France’s Schneider Electric are among the companies competing for the project. The winning company will implement the control system, develop communication networks, and improve electrical transmission. Egypt currently has six electricity control centers, and aims to increase the number to 10 in the coming period.
