Modeling alternative scenarios for Egypt 2050 energy mix based on LEAP analysis

Ahmed Hassan A. El-Sayed et al.

Summary: This study uses LEAP to analyze the various scenarios of electrical energy generation and consumption in Egypt from 2020 to 2050, based on data provided by the Egyptian authorities. The study examines the energy mix under different demand projections and explores the impact of increasing the share of renewable energy. The results show a decline in natural gas contribution by 2050, reaching its peak in the NON scenario and dropping to less than 16.5% in the REN 70 scenario. The study also finds that renewable scenarios have the lowest long-term production cost compared to other scenarios.
