German renewable energy specialist juwi has constructed its first project in Egypt — an off-grid hybrid system which consists of a 50kW PV system, four small wind turbines and a battery storage unit.
Located in Wadi El Natrun, a valley surrounded by barren desert land situated between Cairo and Alexandria, the hybrid system will generate electricity to power several water pumps for irrigation as well as a plant for desalination of groundwater. The battery system, which has a storage capacity of 500kWh, will ensure that the water pumps and desalination plant are able to operate 24 hours a day.
