A team of five RAE (Regulatory Authority for Energy) officials visited Egypt over the past few days to take part in talks on a twinning project concerning the restructuring of the country’s electricity market.

RAE is collaborating with its Egyptian counterpart on the development of Egypt’s Electric Utility and Consumer Protection Regulatory Agency and with the Italian regulatory authority for the development of an Electricity, Gas and Water system.

The program being pursued concerns development, not research, the objective being to transfer scientific knowledge, other forms of technical assistance, and also aim for administrative and legal collaboration.
