Similarly, the wind energy potential for other fifteen locations was investigated over both coastal and interior areas, including Hurghada, Zafarana, Abu Darag, Aswan, Al-arish, Assuit, Matruh, Rafah, Alexandria, Cairo, El Quiser and Elbaharia. The average power density was found to be ranging from 30 to 467 W/m 2.

Are wind farms cost-effective in Egypt?

Hamid (2011) investigated cost-effective wind farm locations in Egypt by developing a new geographic information system (GIS) linked to a multi-criteria decision support system. The results of this study suggested that 30% of the Egyptian land is suitable for harnessing power from the wind. Fig. 8.
