Permit to build Dabaa Nuclear Power Plant may be issued July 2022​

Fri, 14 May 2021

CAIRO – 14 May 2021: Chairman of Nuclear Power Plants Authority (NPPA) Amgad al-Wakil told Egypt Today that he expects the Egyptian Nuclear and Radiological Regulatory Authority (ENRRA) to issue the permit to build Dabaa Nuclear Power Plant in July 2022.

The NPPA applied on the permit on March 10, 2019, and currently, is remedying the shortcomings detected by the ENRRA. It is noted that Wakil had said in earlier statements that the permit would be issued by mid-2021.

Once the permit is out, the concrete base of the first reactor will be built. At present, contractors are leveling the land, and constructing administrative and associate buildings.

The Dabaa Nuclear Power Plant – to be executed in partnership with Rosatom - consists of four third-generation VVER reactors. Each has a capacity of 1,200 megawatts.

Such reactors can stand a collision by a plane whose weight is 400 tons and speed is 150 meters per second. They also encompass many filters that inhibit nuclear leaks.

* El Dabaa Nuclear Power Plant will have four Generation 3+ VVER‑1200 reactors with a capacity of 1,200 MW each. These reactors are not just innovative — they belong to the latest generation and have already proved to be reliable. Three power units of the same design operate in Russia.

Can we develop any types of nuclear weapons secretly while there is modern nuclear activity detection systems?

This is purely civilian.. most military nuclear developments are made in secret..

Cooperation between the Industrial Modernization Center and the Electronics Research Institute in the localization of technology
​

The officials of the Industrial Modernization Center held separate meetings with a number of officials in the Electronics Research Institute, to discuss cooperation between the Center and the Institute in the coming period.

The meetings discussed ways to use lithium batteries for electric cars, motors and scooters, and it was agreed on networking operations with the private sector to implement the ideas of using lithium batteries.

The technical and technological capabilities of the solar inverter device were also discussed, and it was agreed to send a technical file for the product, in addition to the names of the tests that the product needs to obtain in order to be marketed to the solar cell collection companies.

Another separate meeting discussed the preparation of an integrated report on electronic chips and semiconductors that includes an analysis of global supply and demand, as well as the proposals of the Industry Modernization Center regarding the localization of electronic chip manufacturing.

Electronic chips

This is a huge step ahead..!!!

The field of electronic design is very booming in Egypt and there are great efficiencies in it.... What missing is the semiconductor Foundry manufacturing like TSMC and this will be a huge and very expensive project, but will provide a great return, especially if Egypt gets a share from the trillion international market for semiconductors..

* This is possible with Samsung who has already started manufacturing school tablets in Egypt..

Look how long it takes to actually get such a massive project going. I can only imagine all the factors included in pushing a nuclear power plant of this caliber into the construction phase.

And who knows if somehow something like CAATSA doesn't rear its ugly head at the last minute!

Thanks to making my day happy

Bro no worries .. this is a civilian program..and going as planned.

In fact you can smuggle nuclear cores and components. In his book “The Arab Military Option”, El Shazly estimated that 10% of the cores/plutonium/name it what you want lost to smuggling worldwide ended up in Israel. Hence although Egypt didn’t manufacture nuclear warheads its possible that materials were smuggled to Egypt, too.

CAATSA is a broadly implied sanctions program, though, especially when it includes nuclear materials which was my point. Not 100% sure but it's primarily because of the waste and how it's handled that is a big part of it, but it starts with Russia providing nuclear materials despite all the provisions for inspections. Hopefully I am wrong.

Providing enough nuclear material LEU to operate the plant is just normal and it goes under the inspections..

Egypt aims to implement a project to generate green hydrogen with investments of 3-4 billion dollars​

...

The Minister of Electricity and Renewable Energy said that areas in Egypt have been identified for renewable energy production projects with more than 7,000 square kilometers, from which we can produce about 90,000 megawatts.

And Mohamed Shaker added that the Ministry of Electricity aims to bring the mix of energy produced from renewable sources in 2035 to about 42% of the total energy produced in Egypt.

The Minister of Electricity and Renewable Energy reviewed the ministry’s successes in using renewable energy, as Egypt relies on renewable energy by 20% by the end of 2021, a full year before the plan. Benban plant, the largest solar power plant in the world, with a total capacity of 1,465 MW.

...

Mohamed Shaker, Minister of Electricity and Renewable Energy, said that Egypt has become a center for electrical interconnection between the three continents after the boom it achieved in the field of energy production thanks to presidential support for plans to expand energy production, as Egypt is electrically connected to Sudan, Libya and Jordan, and it is planned to implement the electrical connection with Saudi Arabia.

As part of the Dabaa Nuclear Energy Project, we are proud to announce that Hassan Allam Construction has signed an engineering and construction contract for the “Building and Basic Support Package (CSB)” with Titan 2 a subsidiary of Rosatom, as the main contractor for this package.

The CSB complex consists of 176 buildings/facilities with a construction area of 375,000 square meters, including production facilities, storage facilities, utility networks and administrative buildings. The complex will be used to assemble, build and implement nuclear and turbine islands.

This complex will support the project in adapting lean building principles and new building practices to reduce time, enhance efficiency, and significantly reduce material waste.
