The Kingdom enters the top ten global rankings for battery energy storage with ambitious future capacity goals. Saudi Arabia is establishing itself as a significant player in the energy storage sector, now ranked among the top ten global markets for battery energy storage.
Under the National Renewable Energy Program, which is overseen by the Ministry of Energy, Saudi Arabia aims to develop a total storage capacity of 48 gigawatt-hours by 2030. To date, projects totaling 26 gigawatt-hours have been tendered and are currently in various phases of development.
What is BYD energy storage?
BYD Energy Storage introduced its first pilot BESS system in 2008 to explore the potential of LFP-based battery storage systems. Since then, it has delivered more than 75GWh of BESS equipment to 350 projects in more than 110 countries and regions, catering to various application scenarios across the generation, utility and consumption sides.
The BESS (battery energy storage system) equipment will be installed at five sites across the country. BYD Energy Storage will supply its new-generation MC Cube-T ESS, featuring CTS (Cell-to-System) super-integrated technology, with a Vcts index exceeding 33%.
