Scatec Solar and partners have grid connected and reached commercial operation for another 65MW of the 390MW Benban project in Egypt. Scatec Solar now has 260MW in operation in Egypt and expects to have completed the remaining two plants out of six over the next couple of months.
The estimated annual 870GWh of electricity produced from Scatec Solar's plants in Benban will avoid about 350,000 tons of CO2 emissions annually and provide energy for more than 420,000 Egyptian households.
