Sungrow has announced the opening of a new energy storage manufacturing facility in Egypt's Suez Canal Economic Zone, with the facility set to produce 10 GWh annually and begin operations in June 2027. The first production will support the Sustainable Energy Valley project in Minya Governorate, a joint venture between the Egyptian government and Norwegian renewable energy firm Scatec.
Sungrow will contribute 4 GWh of energy storage systems to this initiative, furthering Egypt's renewable energy infrastructure. The company's presence in Egypt has been strengthened by its involvement in the Abydos Phase II solar-plus-storage project in Aswan Governorate, which will become Africa's largest single-site integrated solar-plus-storage project upon completion.
Sungrow's VP Thompson Meng emphasized the company's commitment to localization, stating that building local manufacturing capabilities will enhance delivery efficiency and support renewable energy projects in the region. Meng also highlighted Sungrow's intent to collaborate closely with local partners, nurture local talent, and contribute to Egypt's position as Africa's leading renewable energy hub.
