What we know:<\/strong> The new solar power station will have a capacity of 60 MW, and is expected to be operational by the end of 2024. The solar facility will be set up at SNOC\u2019s Sajaa Gas complex to provide necessary energy for its operations. It will export the surplus solar energy produced during the day to the Sharjah Electricity, Water, and Gas Authority (SEWA). In return, SEWA will provide SNOC with electricity during the night when demand for electricity is lower.<\/p>\n

And more: <\/strong>The surplus would allow for the conversion of more units at SNOC\u2019s complex to operate on electricity rather than gas, leading to lower greenhouse gas emissions.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
