LONGi, a global leader in solar technology, today signed a strategic Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with United Energy Egypt (UEE) Limited to deploy a 20 MWp hybrid solar power system.
The project is targeting:
- >70% reduction in diesel consumption
- 24,800 MWh of annual clean energy (powering 6,000+ Egyptian households)
- 14,000+ tonnes of CO₂ emissions avoided yearly (equivalent to removing 3,000 gasoline vehicles).
LONGi will support the project with its Hi-MO 9 modules featuring HPBC 2.0 technology. The module delivers a power output of up to 670W with a conversion efficiency of up to 24.8%, demonstrating exceptionally low degradation even under high-temperature, high-humidity, and other challenging conditions.
This initiative supports Egypt’s national goal of 42% renewable energy by 2030 and showcases solar’s role in decarbonizing industrial operations while enhancing energy security.
“This project will exemplifies how solar innovation can transform even the most energy-intensive industries,” saidMr. Felix Wu, Sales Director, LONGi MEA&CA, Africa. “By combining our BC technology with hybrid systems, we’re helping UEE achieve ESG goals while bolstering Egypt’s renewable leadership.”
“Partnering with LONGi accelerates our transition to sustainable operations,” added Mr Kamel Elsawi, President of United Energy Egypt. “This model sets a precedent for oilfield decarbonization across MENA.”
