Ahmed Mousa Addresses Electricity Price Concerns
Media personality Ahmed Moussa spoke about the reasons behind citizens' resentment toward the increase in electricity prices in Egypt. He explained that the first reason is based on previous statements suggesting that there would be no increases in 2026, which led people to expect that the decision would not be implemented. The second reason is the timing of the price hike, as it coincided with a severe heatwave and the holiday period, resulting in heightened electricity consumption by citizens. He clarified that the first consumption tier, which consumes up to 50 kilowatts, represents a small percentage of subscribers, while the second and third tiers—representing the highest consumption—experienced significant price increases and affect more than 20 million consumers. He emphasized that the increase is aimed at maintaining the sustainability of electricity production, despite the dissatisfaction it has caused among some citizens.
