Abstract:In recent years, decreasing the carbon footprint and mitigating the effects of global warming has been one of the main concerns for states all over the world. One of the main areas that must be altered in order to achieve this is the energy sector. This study aims to evaluate the current situation of the energy sector in Egypt along with the different energy sources available in the country. Furthermore, the different targets set by Egypt both on the National and International level are assessed. Next, through research and different interviews with respectable representatives from the sector and with the use of the Actors, objectives, and context (AOC Framework) a study is done to identify the different actors in the Egyptian energy sector along with their objectives and the context in which the specified objectives matter to the relevant actors. From the results, the various actors involved in the Egyptian energy sector are identified along with the influence of each one on the energy sector. Also, the context in which the specified objectives matter to the different actors is deduced. Moreover, the results show that the AOC framework applies to the case of the Egyptian energy sector in which the most powerful actors have the highest influence on the sector in terms of fulfilling their objectives. Last but not least, various proposed improvements are stated based on the analysis of various documents and the different interviews conducted.
