Khaled Gasser introducing SEDA (Solar Energy Development Association) in Egypt - presentation held at Heliopolis University for Sustainable Development

1. Solar Energy Development Association
SEDA
Enhancing The Role
of
Solar Energy in Egypt

2. SWH History in Egypt
Do You Know!
First solar energy station in the world was built in
Maadi – Cairo on (1911-1913) by Frank Shuman
But why stopped!

3. 3

4. Solar Thermal – Cost / Performance Comparison with PV
ST (FP-Collector, standard type)
Output/day1: 22.7 kWhth
Area: 7.8 m² (84 ft2)
Installed cost:
PV (Module, SQ 165-PC)
Output/day2: 22.3 kWh
Area: 39 m² (420 ft2)
Installed cost:
=
1 to 5
1: Peak output based on SRCC Category C Clear Sky for ST
2: Manufacturers spec sheet for PV at standard test conditions
1 to 3
Solar Thermal is the most effective Solution now !!!

5. SWH World Installations
Where is Egypt!

6. Solar Energy Development Association
SEDA – Why does it exist?
• “To become the market point of
reference when it comes to solar
energy solutions”
• A “Platform” representing ALL Solar
Industry stakeholders under ONE
ROOF
(traders, academics, government, cu
stomers, manufacturers, NGO’s, dev
elopment agencies, international
energy associations, etc)

8. Solar Energy Development Association
SEDA – what is it ?
• Non-profit Association, developed
in coordination with the GIZ PSDP
for the promotion of solar energy
in Egypt
• Actively engaged in
researching, developing, training,
and promoting programs with
economic, environmental, and
social benefits for the country as
a whole

9. Solar Energy Development Association
SEDA’s Focus
1.Political
Lobbying
2.Capacity
Building
3.Awareness
& Social Impact

10. 1. To have step forward towards
sustainable development.
Matching with the global effort
to save our earth.
2. Save the government
considerable costs associated
with supplying increasing
energy demands - (it is
cheaper to consume less rather
than build more)
3. Create jobs
4. Profitable solution for
investors.
Making solar energy the standard for water
heating

11. Market Potential in Egypt
Business Opportunity
Council of Ministers - EEU
Housing
Industry
Government Focus:
• Energy Efficiency Unit
Ministry of Tourism:
• Green Tourism Unit
• Switch of 100,000 rooms to green energy in 5 years
Ministry of Housing:
• Urban Development Organization
• 1-million flat to be SWH over 10 years to come
Ministry of Industry:
• Standardization Organization
• Establishment of nationwide quality standard
• Local Manufacturing

12. The Numbers….
National Mechanism for the Tourism Sector
Everybody is a “Winner”
National Economic & Social
Development

13. Reclaiming Lost Potential
How important is Hot water

PROGRAMS FOR CARBON EMISSION REDUCTION
•The energy used for producing hot water in
buildings accounts for 6000Gwh (6% of
electricity consumption) ; about 2 to 3 standard
thermal power plants
• More than 6 million heaters are used in
Residential. Half of them are used electric
heaters . If Egypt satisfies its need for hot water
in buildings 100% by Solar energy it would save
4.5 Million tons of CO2 emission per year
•We have less than 5,000 m2 of installation per
year compared to Tunisia, which exceeded
80,000m2 of installations per annum
