Quick Takeaways
- Guide Automotive Technology EV manufacturing project strengthens Egypt’s electric mobility manufacturing base
- The SCZONE project integrates electric vehicles, batteries, and desalination membranes under one industrial investment
On January 28, the Suez Canal Economic Zone (SCZONE) signed a contract with Guide Automotive Technology to establish a comprehensive manufacturing project focused on electric vehicles, batteries, and water purification and desalination membranes within the industrial zone at Ain Sokhna.
The Guide Automotive Technology EV manufacturing project will be developed across a total area of 70,000 square meters, with overall investments amounting to USD 63.9 million. The project is expected to generate around 1,000 direct employment opportunities, reflecting its scale and industrial significance.
Investment deployment for the first phase of the Guide Automotive Technology EV manufacturing project is estimated at USD 13.6 million. This initial phase forms the foundation for a multi-stage manufacturing roadmap aligned with regional demand and long-term production expansion.
Phased manufacturing approach under the Guide Automotive Technology EV manufacturing project
The project is structured around three clearly defined production phases, each addressing a distinct manufacturing segment within mobility and infrastructure technologies.
Phase one electric vehicle manufacturing scope
The first phase focuses on the production of electric vehicles across multiple mobility categories, supporting diverse transportation needs:
Phase two lithium-ion battery production
The second phase targets the manufacturing of lithium-ion batteries specifically designed for automotive applications, strengthening local battery production capabilities and supporting electric vehicle assembly operations.
Phase three membrane manufacturing
The third phase involves the production of water purification and desalination membranes, expanding the project’s scope beyond mobility into essential industrial and environmental technologies.
Through this integrated setup, the Guide Automotive Technology EV manufacturing project positions SCZONE’s Ain Sokhna industrial zone as a diversified manufacturing hub, combining electric mobility solutions with advanced battery and membrane production under a single investment framework.
