The projects form part of AMEA Power’s broader renewable energy strategy in Egypt, where the company has invested over $3 billion in solar, wind, and battery storage developments

Al-Babtain will design, test, manufacture, and supply steel towers for a 500kV overhead transmission line (OHTL) as part of the construction of the New 500kV LCC HVDC OHTL for the COA-SOA Interconnection Link (Portion III)

The plant is powered by Mitsubishi Power’s hydrogen-ready M701JAC gas turbine and steam turbine, and has a combined cycle output of 680.9 MW

The project will surpass ACWA Power’s existing 1.1 GW Suez Wind Farm and become the country’s largest single-asset Independent Power Producer (IPP)

The project will generate enough renewable electricity to power 36,000 homes annually while offsetting 190,000 tonnes of carbon dioxide emissions.

The contracts are part of the broader Iraqi Electrical Super Grid initiative, financed through SEK and EKN loans.
