Saudi Arabia has issued a request for qualifications for its sixth round of solar and wind projects, which will add 4,500 megawatts of renewable energy to the national grid. This move is part of the National Renewable Energy Program and aligns with Saudi Arabia's Vision 2030 and the King Salman Renewable Energy Initiative. With the goal of renewable energy accounting for 50% of the electricity generation mix by 2030, this initiative aims to stimulate economic development and reduce carbon emissions. The Saudi Power Procurement Co. is overseeing the tendering and procurement process for these projects, which have already awarded over 19 gigawatts.
