Saudi Arabia plans to generate 50% of its electricity from clean sources by 2030.
After COP 26, and the Kingdom's first utilities-scale solar plant launched in June, Sakaka, the Kingdom has some momentum in this critical space.
The Kingdom has 7 independent power producer schemes in the pipeline for approximately 3 GW of PV projects coming online soon.
But the Kingdom's total electrical capacity right now is 70 GW, so there's a long way to go to get to Saudi Arabia's stated goal.
Is the 50% goal of renewables by 2030 realistically achievable?
