Riyadh-based Acwa Power and Bahrain''s state oil firm Bapco Energies have agreed to develop a solar power plant with large-scale battery energy storage in Saudi Arabia''s Eastern Province that will supply electricity to Bahrain.
In August, the Electricity and Water Authority announced the start of work on the country''s first solar power plant, with capacity of up to 150 megawatts. Bahrain''s National Energy Strategy focuses on improving energy demand efficiency, diversifying the national energy mix, including renewables, and ensuring secure and competitive access to energy.
The solar plant will have generation capacity of up to 2.8 gigawatts, developed over several phases, the companies said in a joint statement on Tuesday. Electricity generated by the plant will be transmitted to the load centre of Bapco Energies in Bahrain, accelerating the country''s transition to renewable energy sources.
Bahrain, the Gulf’s smallest oil producer, aims to reduce carbon emissions by 30 per cent by 2035 and reach net zero by 2060. Its National Renewable Energy Plan aims to increase the share of renewables in Bahrain''s energy mix to 20 per cent by 2035.
Our solar PV systems and energy storage products are engineered for reliability, safety, and efficient deployment. All systems include comprehensive monitoring and control systems with remote management capabilities.
