The Egyptian Ministry of Electricity and Renewable Energy has started collecting electricity bills for October, which relate to consumption in September. This process began on Thursday, October 1, 2026. The ministry has announced that citizens can inquire about their bills through the website of the Egyptian Electricity Holding Company.
To check their electricity bills, citizens can follow several steps on the company's website. First, they need to navigate to the services section and then select the option for direct bill inquiries. They will be required to enter their personal data, including name, national ID number, governorate, and 10-digit meter number. After submitting this information, they can view their bill details.
The Ministry of Electricity and Renewable Energy has introduced multiple electronic methods for paying monthly electricity bills. These methods aim to provide convenience and security for all subscribers, eliminating the need to wait for bill collectors. The available payment methods include the company's official website, a unified portal for electricity services, and various mobile applications.
One of the payment methods is through the official website of the Egyptian Electricity Holding Company. Citizens can log in, choose the bill payment service, enter their meter details, and make payments using their bank cards. Another option is the unified portal for electricity services, which allows not only bill payments but also inquiries and other electricity-related services.
Mobile applications such as "My Fawry" and "Sahil" also enable users to pay their electricity bills. The "My Fawry" app can be downloaded from App Store or Play Store, and users can register their payment details to make direct payments. The "Sahil" app, available on all mobile phones, allows bill inquiries, payments, and even prepaid meter recharges if the phone supports NFC technology.
In addition to these methods, citizens can use mobile wallets provided by telecom companies, such as Vodafone Cash, Orange Cash, and We Pay. They can also utilize bank wallets, with 12 banks currently offering this service, including major banks like the National Bank of Egypt and Banque Misr. Other payment options include Fawry outlets, electronic payment centers, and approximately 10,000 ATMs across the country.
The various payment channels provide flexibility and accessibility for citizens to settle their electricity bills. With over 120,000 Fawry outlets and 60,000 other electronic payment centers, along with 10,000 ATMs, Egyptians have multiple convenient options for paying their electricity bills. This initiative aims to enhance the efficiency and ease of bill payments for electricity consumers across the country.
