OPEC Fund Backs Africa's Largest Onshore Wind Farm with $30 Million Investment
The OPEC Fund for International Development has pledged $30 million to support the Gulf of Suez Wind Farm in Egypt, poised to become Africa’s largest onshore wind energy project.
Egypt has been actively expanding its renewable energy portfolio to combat electricity shortages and supply green power to Europe.
The OPEC Fund’s investment aims to boost Egypt’s energy landscape by creating employment opportunities during the construction and operational phases of the wind farm.
