<\/a>Oman-UAE-Saudi Arabia electrical interconnection in the works:<\/strong> A 400 KV electrical interconnection extending from Ibri in northwest Oman to the UAE\u2019s Silaa border with Saudi Arabia and linking to the Gulf Cooperation Council Interconnection Authority (GCCIA) grid is currently in the planning phase following completion of an evaluation study, Oman's Power and Water Procurement Company (Nama<\/a>) said in its 2023-2029 power outlook report (pdf)<\/a>. The expected price tag for the project was not disclosed.<\/p>\n

The details: <\/strong>Spanning 500 kilometers, the interconnector will have a 400 MW transfer capacity and will be able to carry up to 800 MW in emergencies. The interconnector is expected to increase Oman\u2019s net electrical transfer up to 1.3 GW. The 400 KV link will enable GCCIA members to improve transmission stability, generation planning, and trade potential relative to the pre-existing 220 KV (pdf)<\/a> link via UAE, the report adds.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
