Strategic Management of Egyptian-African Geothermal Power Plant Project 60-MW Associated with Sustainable Development in Kenya

Abstract This paper presents the role of Egyptian government for satisfying sustainable development in African countries. However, Egypt has no geothermal power plant although there are many locations in eastern region of Egypt have sufficient quantity of geothermal energy resources. When the highest temperature of geothermal energy resources in Egypt is 51 °C, then it needs auxiliary heating system to produce electricity. So, Egyptian government uses geothermal energy resources as direct use in central heating system for agricultural applications or in physical therapy for encourage tourism sector in Egypt. Development of the African natural resources is considered the most important strategy of Egyptian Government and sharing African countries to obtain sustainability. Kenya is considered the unique country in Africa which utilizes geothermal energy resources for producing electricity. Geothermal Development Company GDC, Nairobi, Kenya produces 985 MW of electricity depending on geothermal energy resources in Kenya and this make Kenya in rank of sixth greatest country in the world utilizes geothermal energy resources for producing electricity after United States, Indonesia, Philippines, Turkey and New Zealand, respectively.
