A 2-GW Photovoltaic Project Commences Construction in Saudi Arabia

On October 28th local time, the substation construction of the 2-GW Furis photovoltaic power plant project in Saudi Arabia, jointly undertaken by China Energy Engineering Corporation Northwest Institute, China Energy Engineering Corporation International Engineering Co., Ltd., and Guangdong Thermal Power, officially commenced, marking the project's entry into the construction phase.

Located in the northeastern part of Jeddah, Mecca Province, western Saudi Arabia, the project is an important component of Saudi Arabia's "Vision 2030" renewable energy plan. The project's scope includes design, procurement, manufacturing, installation, construction, and commissioning. Upon completion, the project will effectively optimize the local energy structure, promote green and low-carbon development, and add new impetus to the high-quality development of the Belt and Road Initiative.

This project is another large-scale photovoltaic project undertaken by China Energy Engineering Corporation in Saudi Arabia, following the 2.6 GW Al-Shubah photovoltaic project and the 2 GW Haddon photovoltaic power plant project. It represents a significant milestone in China Energy Engineering Corporation's expansion in the Saudi market and is another vivid example of its commitment to green development and its contribution to global energy transformation. Going forward, China Energy Engineering Corporation will fully leverage the valuable experience and resource advantages accumulated in fulfilling its contractual obligations for the Saudi photovoltaic project, and promote the project's high-standard, high-quality, and high-efficiency implementation, injecting new impetus into deepening China-Saudi energy cooperation and jointly building the "Belt and Road" initiative.
