TAQA Arabia, Egypt’s main non-public sector power and utility supplier, has received the Energy and Water Challenge of the Yr and the Sustainable Initiative of the Yr awards on the ‘Huge 5 Egypt Affect Awards 2025’ for constructing the nation’s first and largest solar-powered desalination plant.
The plant, developed by TAQA Water in partnership with Somabay, is anticipated to provide greater than 7,300 cubic meters per day (cm/d) of clear, contemporary water for Somabay’s vacation spot.
The 2 awards spotlight the corporate’s management in clear power innovation and its very important function in advancing Egypt’s renewable power and sustainable growth agenda, TAQA Arabia said.
It’s value mentioning that TAQA Arabia has been actively increasing its footprint throughout Egypt and the MENA area. In partnership with Voltalia, TAQA Arabia signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) in 2024 to re-power the prevailing 545-megawatt (MW) Zaafarana wind farm into Egypt’s first 3.2 GW hybrid wind-solar facility
In 2023, the corporate made headlines by launching Tanzania’s first built-in compressed pure fuel (CNG) filling station and car conversion middle below its Grasp Fuel model.
