Abstract | ||
The research mainly aimed to study the economic role of electric energy in the agricultural sector by studying some of the following sub-objectives: the development of renewable energy indicators in Egypt during the period (2009-2022), the standard estimate of the impact of renewable energy on agricultural production in Egypt during the study period, . The most important results were: It was found that the nominal capacity of the amount of electrical energy from the thermal source in Egypt increased at a growth rate of about 9.1% during the study period , It was also shown that the nominal capacity of the amount of electrical energy from water in Egypt increased at a growth rate of about 0.1% during the study period. It was shown that the total nominal capacity of the amount of renewable energy in Egypt increased at a growth rate of about 15.8% during the study period. It was shown that there is a direct relationship between the amount of energy Renewable energy in the agricultural sector and the total value of agricultural production, and inversely with net agricultural income. It was found that a decrease in renewable energy by one unit leads to a decrease in the value of agricultural production by about 21.37 million pounds. | ||
