There is a substantial PV installation project in the Makkah province, which is expected to have a capacity of 2600 MW. This initiative is being progressively developed under the guidance of the Saudi Ministry of Energy. Fig. 3 presents a summary of the current status of solar PV projects in Saudi Arabia [36, 37]. Fig. 3.
This study has provided valuable insights into the utilisation, potential, and challenges of distributed PV systems in Saudi Arabia, offering findings that are applicable to many MENA countries with similar climate conditions. By analysing UF, PR, energy savings, electricity rates, and economic viability, several key conclusions have emerged.
Initial rooftop PV system utilisation factors ranged from 21 % to 49 %. Average electricity savings for buildings in Saudi Arabia are approximately 35 %. Performance ratios range from 77 % to 84.27 % across various regions. The resulting mean LCOE for rooftop PV systems is $0.0445 per kWh.
Present conditions of solar plant projects in Saudi Arabia . The Gulf states achieved 146 GW installed power capacity by 2020, with renewables at 3.27 GW. Solar PV dominates at 71 %, followed by CSP, biomass, and wind. UAE leads in adoption at 68 %, Saudi Arabia at 16 %, and Kuwait, as shown in Fig. 4.
The PV system emerges as the most cost-effective energy option with a production cost of $1.06/kWh, surpassing the wind turbine, diesel generator, and solar power tower systems in economic efficiency . Saudi Arabia is rapidly deploying PV systems, with initiatives like the Sakaka and Layla Al-Aflaj solar projects.
Performance ratio of PV systems The PR of PV systems in Saudi Arabia varies due to factors like location, orientation, shading, and PV module quality. However, the country's abundant solar resources and favourable climate enable high PRs. Previous studies show PRs ranging from 77.00 % to 84.27 %, as shown in Fig. 11.
