  • Will El Dabaa be Egypt's first nuclear power plant?
  • El Dabaa will be Egypt's first nuclear power plant, and the first in Africa since South Africa's Koeberg was built nearly 40 years ago.
  • Will Egypt build a new nuclear power plant?
  • Egypt expects that the NPP, which is being built in the city of El-Dabaa in the Governorate of Matrouh, will operate at full capacity by 2030. In 2015, Russia signed an agreement with Egypt to provide Egypt with a state export loan of $25 billion for the construction of the NPP, which will cover 85 percent of the cost of construction work.
  • How much does the El-Dabaa NPP project cost?
  • Korchagin added that the El-Dabaa NPP construction project "has its own individual characteristics - and I thank our Egyptian partners for well-coordinated joint work. Together we will achieve success in the implementation of this grandiose project." The total cost of El-Dabaa NPP project is estimated at $30 billion.
  • What does NPPA stand for?
  • Photo : NPPA This marked another significant step in the collaboration between Egypt's Nuclear Power Plants Authority (NPPA) and Russia's state-run nuclear engineering corporation Rosatom to build the country's first-ever nuclear power plant, which is designed to generate energy for peaceful purposes.
  • When will Rosatom's NPP project start in Egypt?
  • Under the agreement, Egypt is to start payments on the loan at a rate of 3 percent per annum in October 2029. The plant will comprise the most advanced technology to date, which has been successfully implemented and operated in Russia and abroad, according to Rosatom. The NPP project in Egypt will be Rosatom’s first major project in Africa.
  • Is El-Dabaa NPP gaining momentum?
  • Alexander Korchagin, Senior Vice President for NPP Construction Project Management at Rosatom's ASE, said in a statement following the celebration that "the start of construction of the third nuclear reactor of the El-Dabaa NPP indicates that the project is gaining momentum."
