Schneider Electric, Al Ahly Sabbour, and Gebal for Sustainability Solutions have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to launch sustainable community development projects in Sidi Heneish village, Marsa Matrouh Governorate. The projects aim to enhance the Water, Food, and Energy Nexus, and empower local communities, impacting environmental, social, and economic levels. Key initiatives include a 140-meter-deep groundwater well, a solar-powered desalination station producing 60 cubic meters of clean water daily, and a climate-controlled greenhouse with a production capacity of 15 tons annually. AI-based smart solutions using EcoStruxure technology from Schneider Electric will improve energy efficiency, enable remote monitoring, and reduce carbon emissions. Over 19,000 individuals will benefit from these projects, which will create job opportunities and provide training for sustainable operation and maintenance.
