• Accelerate the transmission of energy

In a related context, the United States, Egypt and Germany issued a political statement explaining a plan to accelerate energy transition in Egypt through the Egyptian Novi platform for food, water and energy.

• 250 million dollars for energy projects

According to the US State Department, the United States and Germany have committed to mobilizing more than $250 million in resources to support the deployment of 10 gigawatts of wind and solar projects while decommissioning 5 gigawatts of inefficient natural gas generation.

She stated that the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development is coordinating this project, pointing to Egypt's commitment to enhance its nationally determined contribution by quadrupling its share of renewable energy to 42 percent by 2030.

• An ambitious long-term strategy for 2050

Egypt has committed to adopting an ambitious long-term strategy for 2050 with the aim of exploring achieving the goal of achieving net zero greenhouse gas emissions and starting the development of green hydrogen.

Egypt plans to expand the use of zero-emission vehicles, sustainable public transportation, and other solutions to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from transportation.

The United States, Egypt and Germany have also committed to cooperating in reducing methane emissions from Egypt's oil and gas sector.

It should be noted that these commitments achieve significant climate benefits by reducing the emissions of the energy sector in Egypt by about one-fifth, as well as reducing methane gas pollution and enhancing energy security by releasing more than two billion cubic meters of gas.

The improvement in the NDCs announced in Egypt is part of further improvements to the NDCs from major sources of emissions since the 26th United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP26).
