The electricity cut-off schedule and load reduction plan, which are being implemented according to the previously specified schedules and dates, will resume after the end of the celebration of Easter and Holy Week.

The power cuts are usually scheduled for two hours at a time, and they affect different areas of the country.

The Egyptian government put its plan of load reductions in place on July 17, brought on by increased electricity consumption due to searing heatwaves across the nation.

The plan involved cutting off electricity throughout the country to reduce daily consumption, which had risen to up to 36 gigawatts.
