Chinese group Shandong Electric Power Construction (Sepco) has announced that it has secured a contract for the construction of a 300MW photovoltaic power station located in Rabigh, Saudi Arabia.
Early this month, a consortium comprising TotalEnergies and Saudi developer Aljomaih Energy and Water Company had signed a 25-year Power Purchase Agreement with the Saudi Power Procurement Company (SPPC) for this project.
The scope of the project includes the construction of a 300MW photovoltaic power station, a supporting 33kV/110kV booster station and a 110kV overhead line. The solar plant will be developed, built, owned and operated by the consortium with a connection to the grid planned in 2026.
