- Saudi Arabia signed 15 renewable energy Power Purchase Agreements in 2025 covering 24.389GW of generation capacity.
- The milestone strengthens the Kingdom’s clean energy pipeline and accelerates its Vision 2030 energy transition goals.
Saudi Arabia signed 15 power purchase agreements in 2025, bringing its combined renewable energy capacity to 24.389 gigawatts. The milestone strengthens the Kingdom’s clean energy portfolio and accelerates its energy transition goals.
The agreements cover multiple utility-scale renewable energy projects across the country. As a result, Saudi Arabia continues expanding renewable generation under its national diversification strategy.
Key projects include Yanbu (700 MW), Sufun (400 MW), Shaqra (1,000 MW), and Dawadmi (1,500 MW). In addition, Starah (2,000 MW), Bisha (3,000 MW), and Najran (1,400 MW) form part of the portfolio.
The programme also includes Rabigh 1 (1,179 MW), Humaj (3,000 MW), and Khulis (2,000 MW). Furthermore, Afif 1 and Afif 2 each contribute 2,000 MW, while Samtah and Ad Darb each add 600 MW. Hajar contributes another 3,010 MW.
Notably, the Dawadmi wind project set a global record for low-cost wind generation. The project achieved a tariff of 1.33 US cents per kilowatt-hour, strengthening Saudi Arabia’s cost competitiveness in renewable procurement.
The large-scale PPA signing reflects Saudi Arabia’s strategy to diversify its energy mix. Moreover, the programme supports power system efficiency and long-term sustainability goals. The agreements also signal strong investor confidence in the Kingdom’s renewable energy market. Therefore, Saudi Arabia continues attracting global developers and financiers into its clean energy sector.
The milestone supports Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030 strategy. Consequently, the country is positioning itself as a major renewable energy producer in the Middle East.
