Honeywell Partners with MCIT to Reduce Building Energy Consumption

Honeywell and Egypt’s Ministry of Communications and Information Technology (MCIT) have signed a MoU to advance sustainability, reduce energy consumption and improve operational efficiency in government buildings across Egypt.

Signed on the sidelines of the 27th Conference of the Parties of the UNFCCC (COP 27) held in Egypt, the strategic MoU between Honeywell and MCIT supports the objectives outlined as part of the billion-dollar National Climate Change Strategy 2050.

It also enhances Honeywell’s established track record of delivering sustainable smart city solutions in Egypt and the wider Middle East and North Africa region.

As part of the agreement, Honeywell intends to deploy software and hardware solutions within two main government buildings – the New Governor’s Building in South Sinai and the Sharm el-Sheikh International Hospital – by deploying Honeywell Buildings Sustainability Manager.
