Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, November 20, 2024 – Sineng Electric, a global leader in solar and energy storage solutions, has been awarded a 2.6GW supply contract for the PIF4 project, a landmark renewable energy initiative in Saudi Arabia, co-owned by ACWA Power, Badeel, and SAPCO. This collaboration aligns with Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030 and its objective to diversify the nation’s energy mix by expanding renewable energy capacity.
The PIF4 project cluster includes two sub-projects – the Haden solar power plant and the Al Khushaybi solar power plant. Sineng secured a 1GW supply agreement with China Energy Engineering Group Consortium for the Haden project and a 1.6GW agreement with Larsen & Toubro for the Al Khushaybi project, reinforcing its presence in the Middle Eastern market. As part of the National Renewable Energy Program (NREP), the project supports the Kingdom’s objective of achieving a 50% renewable energy mix by the end of the decade.
For this project, Sineng will provide its advanced 8.8MW MV turnkey stations, each comprising 2 units of 4.4MW central inverter, a transformer, and an RMU. These inverters are known for their high power output and ability to accommodate large block sizes, thereby maximizing energy generation. Their modular design at the component level, along with four MPPTs, enables flexibility and efficiency across a variety of conditions. Engineered to withstand extreme temperatures up to 51ºC without derating and strong sand-laden winds, the 8.8MW MV turnkey stations will deliver consistent and reliable performance throughout the plant’s operational lifespan.
“Sineng Electric is honored to be part of the PIF4 solar PV project and support KSA’s efforts to diversify its energy sources,” said Qiang Wu, Chairman of Sineng Electric. “With over 6.5GW of secured contracts in the Middle East, Sineng is dedicated to accelerating the global clean energy transition by delivering innovative, reliable, and efficient energy solutions tailored to the evolving needs of PV projects.”
