Renewable Energy Status for Saudi Arabia

Saudis solar thermal energy of up to 2,550 KWH per m2 per year (twicethe average solar irradiation in Europe).

KA-CARE wasEstablished in 2010 to develop a future sustainable

alternative energy in the Kingdom.

Aim to meet %of Saudi Arabias energy needs from renewable energy by

2020.

KACST is building a 30,000 m3/day solar-powered seawater desalinationplantin Al-Kharfji.

PTC (Polysilicon Technology Company) is building a 7,500 tons per year

high-quality polysilicon plant in Jubail.

IDEA Polysilicon Company project in Yanbu to produce 10,000 tons/year

polysilicon, 20 million wafers& 19 million solar cells per year.

Saudi Aramco is building a 10 MW photovoltaic solar carport system inthe Dhahran office complex.

SEC has launched a solar power plant of an annual production of 864,000

KWH per year on Farasan Island.

Concluding Remarks RC Yanbu has launched the Energy Efficiency Program

and Solar Energy Initiatives targeting 10%consumption

reduction of todays practice based on the directions of HE

the EP of the Royal Commission inYanbu and in line with

Saudi Energy Efficiency Center regulations.

Yanbu Industrial City has all suitable conditions for solar

energy clusters development. With the Royal Commission's ability and firm commitment

to serving investors, great investment opportunities lie

ahead particularly in the solar energy industry.
