Saudi Arabia has embarked on a significant renewable energy initiative by launching a tender for battery storage systems. This project, aimed at enhancing grid flexibility, involves creating 2,000 MW/8,000 MWh of battery storage capacity through four build-own-operate projects.

The Saudi Power Procurement Company (SPPC) has announced that these projects will be developed under the BOO model, allowing developers full ownership and operational control. The strategic locations for these projects include two 500 MW sites in the Makkah region and additional sites in Al-Qassim and Hail provinces, each with a four-hour storage capability.

This initiative supports Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030, which targets a 50% share of renewable energy in the national power mix, reducing reliance on fossil fuels. The battery energy storage systems (BESS) will play a critical role in ensuring grid stability and accommodating renewable energy fluctuations.

Earlier, SPPC initiated a 4.5 GW tender for renewable projects and has shortlisted bidders for major solar projects. Riyadh-based ACWA Power has also advanced in solar energy with 5.5 GW projects reaching financial closure.

These efforts underscore Saudi Arabia’s commitment to transitioning towards a sustainable energy future, highlighting the importance of resilience, flexibility, and increased renewable capacity in the national energy landscape.
