energy. The Electricity audit at hand is a case study with the objective of identifying the major

areas of electricity consumption of the different groups of the population of Alexandria-Egypt.

conditioning (26%), food reservation (20%), illumination (19%), and water heating (13.0%) are

found to be the leading sectors of electricity consumption. The energy consumption per person is

about 1450 KWh, and the number of consumers in Alexandria is about 1.756 million, which the

maximum load demand in about 1800MW, and the electricity demand has been rising sharply

over the recent ten years at an annual average rate of approximately 6.5% .The potential of

benefiting from available renewable energy resources to alleviate electricity consumption is

discussed.
