As an important part of Saudi Arabia’s “Vision 2030″ new energy plan, the project will provide 3,000 local jobs during the construction process.
On the morning of August 7 local time in 2023, the installation of the first group of Ground Solar Mounting Bracket in the A section of the 2.6GW PV project of China NENG in Saudi Arabia was completed, marking the installation of the power station into the key link and the project construction into the fast track.
After completion, it is expected that the total power generation will be 282.2 billion KWH in 35 years, and the carbon dioxide emissions will be reduced by nearly 245 million tons, equivalent to planting 545 million trees in the Saudi desert, which is of great significance to accelerating the transformation of Saudi Arabia’s energy structure and green and low-carbon development.
