"Unitel Engineering" to supply equipment for Egypt's first nuclear power plant
Unitel Engineering
El Dabaa NPP
"Unitel Engineering" (part of the NEC Group) is participating in a large-scale nuclear energy project. The company will manufacture electrical equipment for the El Dabaa Nuclear Power Plant (NPP) under construction in Egypt. The project is being implemented in collaboration with JSC "Atomstroyexport" (part of the engineering division of "Rosatom State Corporation").
The El Dabaa NPP is Egypt's first nuclear power facility and will play a key role in meeting the country's growing energy needs. The plant's expected capacity is 4.8 GW, significantly reducing the Republic's dependence on hydrocarbon imports.
Unitel Engineering will perform a full range of turnkey services, from equipment design and manufacture to delivery, installation supervision, and commissioning. The electrical equipment will be installed at the 220 kV substation, which will supply power to the NPP construction site. The supply will include:
• relay protection and automation system (RPA);
• automated process control system (APCS);
• automated information and measurement system for commercial electricity metering (AIMS KUE);
• communication equipment.
All products will be developed in strict compliance with the requirements of Rosatom and the foreign customer, as well as international safety standards. The implementation of automated systems at the NPP will ensure reliable control and monitoring of the electrical equipment for the stable operation of all four power units.
The El Dabaa NPP project is progressing well: work is on schedule, and equipment delivery is scheduled for 2026.

"This is another important international project for us. Working in the nuclear power industry always requires the highest standards: from production and logistics to consideration of local conditions. Our experience at the Rooppur NPP in Bangladesh has proven that we guarantee the required quality and reliability. This was the key argument in our favor when selecting a supplier for the El Dabaa NPP"
