AI Customer ServiceSaudi Arabia has established a goal to source at least 50 percent of its power from renewable energy by 2030, expanding its capacity to 130 gigawatts (GW), 58.7 GW of which is expected to come from solar and 40 GW from wind. This target is the most ambitious of its kind among Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries (Figure 1).
The Saudi agency in charge of developing the nations renewable energy sector, Ka-care, announced in May 2012 that the nation would install 41 gigawatts (GW) of solar capacity by 2032. It was projected to be composed of 25 GW of solar thermal, and 16 GW of photovoltaics.

Solar power in Saudi Arabia has become more important to the country as oil prices have risen. In 2021, 60.89% of energy consumed was produced by burning oil.
The transition to solar energy in Saudi Arabia is spearheaded by the Ministry of Energy through the Renewable Energy Program. Key stakeholders in the private sector, alongside international partners such as ACWA Power, Alfanar Group, and EDF Renewables, play pivotal roles in driving this initiative forward.
1. Saudi Arabia has initiated the National Renewable Energy Program (NREP) to develop its solar energy sector, with several projects in progress, including a 600 MW capacity project. 2. Large-scale project such as Sakaka solar Independent Power Producer (IPP) (300 MW) and Dumat Al Jandal wind project (400 MW) were part of the first bidding process.
