What makes us the premier design firm in the MENA region and Sub-Saharan Africa?

The answer comes in one all-encompassing word: Versatility.

Versatility is what allows us to meet the requirements of diverse projects and respond to the needs of different individuals. Versatility is what allows us to innovate and adapt wherever we are in the world. Versatility is also how we always manage to reconcile cost-effectiveness with great quality.

Our extensive range of engineering and design services plays a great role in enhancing this versatility as well:

ECG’s engineering services cover MEP, infrastructure, transportation and process engineering, in conjunction with a range of supplementary engineering services. These include civil and environmental engineering, together with fire protection, lighting, communications, security, and building management systems.

Our design services, on the other hand, cover Front-End Engineering & Design (FEED), Conceptual Design, Preliminary Design, Basis of Design Reports (BODRs), Schematic Design, Design Development, Detailed Design, Design Optimization, Construction Documents, Value Engineering and Computer Simulations.

We will admit we are perfectionists. When it comes to architectural design, we want to be innovative, functional, beautiful, environmentally friendly, and above all, we want to leave a legacy for the generations to come. We also want to bring all that to every possible structure. Whether it be a bridge or a highway, an exterior or an interior, we want it to shine.

Although this perfectionism keeps us up all night, it also pays off. We are very proud of our contributions to some of the most prestigious projects in the region: From landmark high-rises and mega residential compounds, to business parks and LEED compliant buildings, and from acoustics and vertical transportation to conveyor systems and much more.

West Damietta site is located on the southern shoreline of the Mediterranean Sea, about 200 km from north Cairo along the railway which connects east Damietta to west of the site parallel to the International Coastal Highway.

The Egyptian Electricity Holding Company (EEHC) constructs and operates a new Combined Cycle power plant at the existing West Damietta gas turbines plant.

The power plant has been operating since 2012; the proposed Combined Cycle Power Plant is 750 MW comprising four existing 125 MW Gas Turbine Generators (GTGs), each with a nominal electricity generating capacity of 125 MW and four Heat Recovery Steam Generators (HRSGs) utilizing the GTGs to produce enough steam in order to generate 250 MW in a steam turbine, which will be known as West Damietta Combined Cycle Power Plant.

The power output from the proposed plant will be sold to the Egyptian Electricity Transmission Company (EETC). The new project aims to convert the existing simple cycle to a combined cycle plant, which reduces the gas turbines’ exhaust gas temperature.

The power plant utilizes both natural gas and solar; this “dual-fuel” operability provides security of electricity provision in the event that gas supplies are unavailable for any reason. In addition, a small emergency generator operating on solar oil will also be provided on-site to operate key equipment within the power plant in the event of power supply failure.

The Environmental and Social Impact Assessment (ESIA) report is prepared by ECG, based on many baseline studies undertaken by independent national and international consultants and on the information provided by EEHC, EDEPC and their sub-contractors.
