power air compressors for diving activities.
4.2.2.2 Expected results
Assumptions:
- Awareness raising and improved management of energy could easily result in a 10% reduction of energy
consumption in hotels, resorts and diving centres,
- Refurbishment in hotels and resorts could lead to 30% energy consumption reduction (50% hotels engaged
achieving 60% cuts),
- Awareness raising and improved management of diving and cruise boats’ occupancy could lead to a 10% cut in
energy consumption,
- On the longer term, a fleet refurbishment programme (switching from diesel to gas) would result in a 50 % cut
in energy consumption from boats,
- Efficiency in lighting and renewable energy in harbour and diving centres could lead to 20% electricity
consumption reduction.

4.2.2.3 Budget
These figures are rough estimates of budget required per action for the period 2018-2030 and ROI.
Awareness raising on the two targets (hotels, diving centres & boats) 100,000 € 1 year
Diving boats refurbishment 5,000,000 € 2 to 3 years
Hotel and resort refurbishment (revolving fund) 10,000,000 € 2 to 3 years
4.2.3. Residential buildings
4.2.3.1 Current situation
The residential building sector is the 3 rd largest energy consumer with 441 GWh/year, or 12% of the total energy
consumed in the city (3,338 GWh Final Energy/year as of the 2015 reference). It is also one of the key sectors to be
addressed, as it is also third in GHG emissions of 215 kteqCO2/year or 16 % of the total emissions of energy consumption
(1,338 k teqCO 2/year).
With a population of 279,684 persons (2015), the City of Hurghada - Governorate of Red Sea had 56,341 house owners
in 2015 and 60% of these residential houses are connected to the natural gas grid; however, the natural gas grid is still
under development and designed to reach a connection rate of 80% by end of 2017.
