It will further optimize the power grid structure in the Nile Delta region of Egypt and improve the safe operations of the power grid, which in turn will have a profound impact on the country's economic development and use of electric energy.

Since the breaking of ground, the construction staff members have actively cooperated and steadily promoted various tasks in accordance with the requirements of the project owner and the contractor.

The project has helped establish a powerful brand image for POWERCHINA and provided strong support for the company's development in the Egyptian market.
