Since 2014, Egypt has pursued one of the world's most ambitious infrastructure drives — fourth-generation cities to relieve Cairo's congestion, thousands of kilometres of new roads and rail, and a fast-growing renewable-energy sector targeting 42% of power generation by 2030. Framed by the national "Vision 2030," the strategy aims to modernise the economy and diversify growth while welcoming record numbers of visitors — nearly 19 million in 2025.
