Egypt announced the second update of its Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs), reflecting its heightened climate action ambitions.
The latest NDC — climate action commitments outlined by the government — revealed the country’s revised plans for transitioning towards low-carbon pathways, reducing energy consumption, and maximizing energy production from local resources.
NDCs, though not binding, are a cornerstone of global efforts to combat climate change.
Worth mentioned that the Egyptian announcement was on Monday, 26 June 2023.
Following the Paris Agreement in 2015, several countries, including Egypt, were mandated to submit their NDCs, which Egypt did in November 2015. The government then updated its NDCs for the first time in June 2022, according to the “Egyptian Streets” website.
