Further to the SNC to UNFCCC, Egypt published in 2010 a National Environmental, Economic and Development Study (NEEDS) for CC to outline the financial and institutional needs for implementing prospective and on-going adaptation and mitigation measures. This study recognizes that the next phases of CC planning should include a National Action Plan for Adaptation (NAPA) and National Low Carbon Economy Plan (NLCEP). The NEEDS report highlights the urgency for developing a GHG monitoring system that aggregates and disseminates information about GHG emissions across sectors. Additionally, the MoEnv has signed an agreement with the Italian MoEnv in 2014 to transform El-Gouna City into the first carbon-neutral city in Africa 77 . Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) Law No. 4 indicates that the environmental impact of certain establishments or projects must be evaluated before any construction works are initiated or a license is issued by the responsible administrative authority or licensing authority. Additionally, the Executive Regulations relating to Law No. 4 classifies types of establishments or projects that must undergo an Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) based on certain principles. a b c d Type of activity performed by the establishment. Extent of natural resources exploitation. Location of the establishment. Type of energy used to operate the establishment. The EEAA developed a flexible system to manage the EIA projects in order to use limited economic and technical resources in the best possible way. This system encompasses a flexible screening system and projects, classified into three groups reflecting different levels of EIA according to the severity of possible environmental impacts and including a list of approaches based on the impact level. For more details, refer to Annex II. Monitoring Guidelines The MoEnv and EEAA issued guidelines for environmental inspection, monitoring issues, including 78 : a) EIA Forms and Guidelines; b) Environmental Inspection Guidelines; and c) Pollution Abatement. Also, the National Network for Monitoring Industrial Emission Guidelines was established. Considering the wide range of laws (nos. 4, 9, and 105) and regulations in place, there is a political commitment to environmental protection, sustainable energy actions, and sustainability as well as sustainable development by the Government of Egypt, the governorates and cities’ councils. The Minister of Environment issued Ministerial Decrees No. 19 and No. 20 of year 2016. The EEAA Chief Executive Officer (CEO) has also issued a Decree No. 26 of year 2016 regarding the list of these projects 78 . More information about the list of these projects are available in Annex II. EIA Guideline The EEAA puts the EIA guidelines in place, which include a list of sectors to guide the process of EIA 79 . More information about the list of sectors are available in Annex II in this report. These guidelines will ensure, if executed diligently, a good direction to protect the environment in the governorates from new projects’ negative impact and that would have less influence on depleting resources, reducing air and water pollution and assist in the adaptation to climate change. The SEAPs (SECAPs) implementation at the local authority would support meeting Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), mainly SDG 7, 11, 12, and 13 in this important sector (environment) and developing projects for donors.

SDG 07: SDG 11: SDG 12: SDG 13: Affordable and Clean Energy Safe, Resilient and Sustainable Cities Responsible Consumption and Production Climate Action 4.4 Role of NFP, key stakeholders and networks The NFP recommends coordinating with the NCG, which encompasses a combination of participating Ministries and main stakeholders to support the implementation of SEAPs (SECAPs): • MoFA to lead the coordination process for effective implementation of SEAPs (SECAPs). Stakeholders • MoPIC for the International cooperation and supporting information for donors, especially for Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency Fund (REEEF), • MoLD to coordinate the proposed Joint Services Councils (JSC) at the two governorates, • MoERE to provide input on energy consumption (electronic data) at governorates, • MoEnv for waste management related issues, • MoTrt for clean transport strategy and accessible mobility, as well as to develop policies to foster and bestow public clean transport, • MoHUUD to update the BEECs and issue the BEECs for Governmental and Industrial buildings. Also, to issue buildings’ Energy Efficiency tendering, procurement and enforcement procedures for building codes. In addition, to develop procedures for green tendering and procurement in collaboration with MoEnv, MoIFT, MoLD and, MoF, • MoHUUD, MoRER, MoIFT and MoLD to enforce mandatory Energy Audits in commercial, industrial, and governmental buildings at the two governorates, • MoTrm to update Hotel Green Units and to mandate green measures and codes in hotels, • MoAnts to expand sustainability and green measures near heritage sites to protect heritage buildings in the SEAPs (SECAPs) areas, mainly in the Governorate of Luxor, • MoPMRs, MoERE and MoEnv to develop benchmark indicators in cities for GHG emissions, • NREA to develop comprehensive Energy Efficiency programmes in collaboration with RCREEE, • RCREEE to support NREA and MoERE in developing GHG emissions’ indicators, • MoIFT and MoF to update laws to allow for green product tax exemption, • MoF to update laws for importing electrical vehicles for the sole purpose of promoting mobility at the Governorates of Red Sea and Luxor, and • MoF/ The Egyptian Central Bank to regulate an incentives scheme to import green products. As soon as the SEAPs (SECAPs) commence and move forward, more entities and stakeholders can add value and provide support. Involving the MoIC and MoF as well as international donors operating in Egypt (AFD, kfW, EIB, ERDB and JICA) and others is vital for their crucial role when it comes to budget allocation for SEAPs (SECAPs) development, implementation and projects’ fiches. Additional stakeholders relevant to the development and implementation of SEAPs (SECAPs) are: • MoCom to develop electronic key indicators for the two Governorates as a pilot study, • MoInv to support projects’ opportunities for funding, • NSEC to recommend developing energy indicators in all related sectors, • RCREEE to offer technical support for updating RE and EE regulations, • Petroleum Research Centre (PRC) to support SEAPs and SECAPs, • Oil and Gas Skills (OGS) for capacity building during SEAPs (SECAPs) execution, PAGE | 63 THIS PROJECT IS FINANCED BY THE EUROPEAN UNION AND IS IMPLEMENTED BY THE HUMAN DYNAMICS CONSORTIUM
