Prime Minister in Alexandria.

Dr. Mostafa Madbouly, Egypt’s Prime Minister, visited the construction site of a new railway components and systems factory in Alexandria. During his visit, he received a briefing about the facility, which is expected to create over 650 direct job opportunities over the next five years and generate annual revenues of up to €90 million.

The factory will produce goods for export exclusively, although it may supply the local market with approval from the dry ports authority.

Accompanying the Prime Minister were the Ministers of Industry, Transport, Housing, and the Governor of Alexandria.

Earlier, Dr. Madbouly also toured the West Control Center operated by the Alexandria Electricity Distribution Company in Borg El Arab City. He emphasized the government’s commitment to monitoring projects related to the national electricity grid, highlighting efforts to enhance this vital sector’s efficiency and ensure a continuous supply of electricity for various domestic and developmental uses.

In this context, he noted ongoing modernization and reinforcement of the unified national grid using modern technologies to improve service quality for citizens.

Ayman Attia, Governor of Alexandria, pointed out that the West Control Center was established as part of ongoing efforts to upgrade the electrical network in Alexandria in coordination with the Ministry of Electricity and Renewable Energy. He also mentioned initiatives to enhance meter governance, expand smart meter systems, and automate interactions with subscribers. The center serves as a strategic hub for investment projects and industrial areas in western Alexandria, benefiting several regions and industrial cities such as the free zone and the industrial area in Borg El Arab.
