<\/strong>Shanghai Elec<\/strong>tric tapped for Al Sadawi EPC: <\/strong>Emirati state-run renewables giant Masdar awarded the EPC contract for its 2 GW Al Sadawi solar plant in Saudi Arabia to Chinese power generation firm Shanghai Electric, Trade Arabia<\/a> reports. The project \u2014 part of the fifth round of the Kingdom\u2019s National Renewable Energy Program \u2014 is set to be Shanghai Electric\u2019s largest EPC contract for a solar power project once completed. There is no readily available information on the value of the contract.<\/p>\n

REMEMBER- <\/strong>Masdar, Korea Electric Power, and China\u2019s GD Power Development were reportedly forming a JV<\/a> to develop the project with USD 1.1 bn in investment. GD Power Development will reportedly have a 40% stake in the project, but the entire ownership structure has not been officially disclosed.<\/p>\n

BACKGROUND- <\/strong>State-owned Saudi Power Procurement Company signed a Power Purchase<\/a>Agreement<\/a> for the project with Masdar, Korea Electric Power Corp, and GD Power late last year. The plant<\/a> is slated to reach its full capacity by May 2026, while the official commercial operation is scheduled for August 2027.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
