Abstract: In this study; a brief evaluation has been presented for hydropower capabilities of proposed Qattara Depression Reservoir - maintained at 60 m BSL - served via two routes of water conveyance, an excavated tunnel and pumped water pipeline using the available renewable resources (such as Solar and Wind Energies) as a power source in the first stage of the project, both power demand and power potentials of the project have been presented along with the possibility of maintaining the salinity of the proposed reservoir in the upcoming years of the project, water desalination potentials are among other promising by-products of such project that is presented briefly here.
