Electricity Minister Ends Practice Billing
Egyptian Minister of Electricity and Renewable Energy, Mahmoud Shahat, revealed that the percentage of electricity distribution losses approaches 16.7%, of which 10% are technical losses and 7% due to violations and theft of electric current. He confirmed that the ministry is working on improving grid efficiency and developing legislation to reduce these losses, in addition to issuing new laws to ensure the stability of electricity supplies and prevent the need for load shedding. He also indicated that the technical losses resulting from generation and transmission have currently decreased to about 4%, with measures being taken to address the causes of this loss. Furthermore, efforts to increase reliance on renewable energy sources and energy storage systems have led to a reduction in fuel consumption and economic savings exceeding $38 billion. Shahat clarified that Egypt recorded its highest electrical load of 40.2 gigawatts in August 2026, while maintaining grid stability, and that the ministry abolished the practices system to unify the consumption billing mechanism and improve subscriber services.
