Electricity Minister Did Not Confirm 2026 Price Freeze
Manṣour Abdel Ghani, the spokesperson for the Ministry of Electricity, clarified that the increase in electricity prices last Friday was the result of pricing systems that balance social considerations with economic commitments. The average increase was 12%, with the cost of producing one kilowatt at 8.77 EGP. Citizens are responsible for 30% of the cost of the first tier, while the government covers the remaining support, which amounts to 103 billion EGP annually. The ministry affirms that statements suggesting there will be no increases in 2026 are inaccurate, and that the current system aims to protect citizens through ongoing financial support.
