According to Saudi Arabia's plans, the installed capacity of energy storage will show a rapid growth trend. In the short term, Saudi Arabia plans to have 8GWh of energy storage projects in operation by 2025, and this figure will increase to 22GWh by 2026.
The EPC works on the project were carried out by a consortium between State Grid Corporation of China and Riyadh-based developer Alfanar Projects. The facility's deployment in the harsh desert environment posed substantial challenges, including extreme temperatures and frequent sandstorms.
The Bisha Energy Storage Project has a capacity of 2GWh, featuring 488 advanced battery containers and a storage capacity of 500MW, capable of supplying power for four hours continuously.
SEC has signed contracts with BYD and Saudi Alfanar Projects to supply the relevant products for the project. This project is integrated into the National Renewable Energy Program, contributing to improved energy efficiency, enhanced grid performance, and increased reliability.
