Organized by

Investing in new and renewable energy is more than just an alternative to other traditional
fossil energy products. In fact, this narrow vision of renewable energy has delayed its proper
exploitation, when we should be looking at its enormous potential to create investment anddevelopment projects. Renewable is a means of achieving thesustainable development and progress
that our country needs.
Our conference aims to showcase the plans made and implemented to this end with the participation of all industry players.
The conference brings together a wide range of renewable energy industry players, such as
government authorities, officials, and companies working in the field of renewable energy in
production, supplies, management, as well as companies and institutions that will benefit from
the use of new energy and its resultant lower costs and greater compliance with environmental
standards.
The conference’s aim is to inform participants about the new technology used in renewable
energy, and also about companies operating in different energy fields such as solar, wind, waste
and shale oil.
The conference will discuss the major challenges facing the sector’s growth, which includes
fair pricing in production, as well as providing incentives, guarantees, and legislation that will
help in increasing the pace of growth in producing the renewable energy, and meet increasing
local demand at the same time. The latter will be of particular importance during times in which
traditional energy faces supply cuts and the huge finance requirements which increase the pressure on the Egyptian budget deficit,which lies above LE240 billion.
