<\/a> To solve its energy crisis, Europe should invest in EastMed, says El Molla: <\/strong>Gas from Eastern Mediterranean countries could help tame Europe\u2019s energy crisis \u2014 provided that development partners like the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) and European Investment Bank (EIB) help fund the drilling, Reuters<\/a> reports Oil Minister Tarek El Molla as saying.<\/p>\n

What El Molla said:<\/strong> \u201cIf we need to secure the energy quickly \u2026 I think we need to incentivise these companies, the countries, the developers, by securing them funds,\u201d the minister said during the East Mediterranean Gas Forum in Nicosia. El Molla emphasized that he wasn\u2019t talking about commercial loans but \u201cconcessionary funds with easy access and relaxed terms.\u201d<\/p>\n

The EIB and EBRD have <\/strong>axed loans<\/a><\/strong> to oil and gas projects as part of climate change goals<\/strong> and now face pressure to reverse course given the cut-off of Russian natural gas to the continent.<\/p>\n

El Molla\u2019s argument: Hydrocarbons are a key part of the green transition.<\/strong> \u201cIf you are not going to talk about hydrocarbons, how are we going to accelerate these projects?\u201d El Molla said. Gas development could go ahead in parallel with \u201cimportant efforts\u201d to create a \u201cgreen corridor\u201d that would see the Eastern Mediterranean region supply Europe with green hydrogen and electricity from renewables, he added.<\/p>\n

But even with concessional funding, developing EastMed gas infrastructure is a long game<\/strong>, according to an article this weekend in The Economist<\/a>. Egypt\u2019s LNG facilities<\/a> \u2014 which process natural gas from Israel for re-export to Europe \u2014 can serve only 2% of the continent\u2019s energy demand when running at full capacity, it suggests. Local demand is also on the rise, cutting into the amount of gas that can be sent for export. \u201cExpanding capacity will take years,\u201d according to the newspaper.<\/p>\n

Our LNG exports could hit USD 1 bn per month by January: <\/strong>That\u2019s the government\u2019s current target, Finance Minister Mohamed Maait said in a statement<\/a> over the weekend. LNG exports have averaged USD 600 mn per month in revenues during the last quarter of the 2021-2022 fiscal year, he said.<\/p>\n

BACKGROUND: <\/strong>As Russia pulls its oil and gas from European markets amid the fallout from the Ukraine war, the Egyptian government has redoubled efforts to position the country as a regional energy hub serving the continent. Egypt is a founding member of the EMGF, which brings together countries in the region to coordinate energy policy and develop the region\u2019s gas reserves.The Oil Ministry has placed particular emphasis on building stronger ties with Israel, in June signing anine-year agreement in June<\/a>with the country to increase gas exports to the EU through our LNG facilities.<\/p>\n

ALSO IN EASTMED ENERGY- Cyprus and Greece have broken ground on the <\/strong>EuroAsia Interconnector<\/a><\/strong>, <\/strong>according to Reuters. <\/strong>The EU-funded subsea cable will have capacity to transmit an annual 2 GW of electricity generated by natural gas and renewables from Cyprus and Israel,. The 2 GW EuroAfrica Interconnector, which adds Egypt to the grid, is expected to start commissioning (an industry term for entering the final stages of pre-launch testing) this December.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
