=== Egypt === In the Summer of 2023, with the unprecedented heatwave that hit the country, the Egyptian government announced it would start a scheduled blackout across all major cities for 1 hour per day until the heatwave ended. However, the blackouts remained well into the winter and were increased to 2 hours per day. In the Summer of 2024, the temperatures rose even higher and the schedule changed to 3 hours per day with reports of unplanned cuts in [[Alexandria]], [[Cairo]] and other cities where some places faced over 6 hours without electricity for 3 days.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Nader |first=Jacob Wirtschafter and Mina |date=2024-07-01 |title=Blackouts and Extreme Heat Plague Egypt as Government Extends Rolling Electricity Cuts |url=https://themedialine.org/by-region/blackouts-and-extreme-heat-plague-egypt-as-government-extends-rolling-electricity-cuts/ |access-date=2024-11-20 |website=The Media Line |language=en-US}}</ref>
