Egypt and Russia are negotiating to build two additional reactors at Egypt's Dabaa nuclear power plant to reduce gas imports and diversify energy sources. Egypt is also exploring floating nuclear power plants and small reactors with Russia to enhance energy security and support sustainable development.

◆ The Wire takeaway

You must consider Egypt's nuclear expansion as a growing market for advanced reactor and floating plant technology. This opens direct avenues to supply emerging energy infrastructure and water desalination projects in MENA.
