Enter energy storage systems – the unsung heroes making Oman''s renewable energy dreams workable. Let''s unpack how this dynamic duo is rewriting Muscat''s energy
The isolated networks of Petroleum Development Oman (PDO) and the Rural Areas Electricity Company (Tanweer) in Duqm SEZ have also been linked as part of this
Taken together with parallel plans for the implementation of a raft of Wind IPPs and combined cycle gas turbine (CCGT) power projects, total investment in Oman’s power sector is set to balloon to well over $5 billion over the next six years through to 2030.
The total corporate funding in the global solar sector saw an 11% increase year-on-year at $109.4 billion in the first half of 2019. More than $2.6 trillion has been invested in renewable energy over the past decade.
This trend will continue to increase as solar power prices reach grid parity. In 2019, the global estimated additions of solar photovoltaic (PV) reached almost 138 GW (Figure 1). Within the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region, the increased industrial activity and drive towards renewables is reflected in each country’s strategy.
Projects in the pipeline are now tendered in Oman, Kuwait, Tunisia and countries incliuding Pakistan and Iraq are engaging their first large utility size projects. Renewable energy usage has been growing significantly over the past 12 months. This trend will continue to increase as solar power prices reach grid parity.
Overall investment in the MENA energy sector could reach $1 trillion by 2023, with the power sector accounting for the largest share of the spending at 36%. As the unit rate for solar energy investment is reducing year-on-year, a decrease in capital does not represent a slowdown in the industry (Figure 2).
OPWP is planning to install a CSP plant with a capacity of up to 600 MW plus battery stor-age systems. The project is anticipated to proceed only if Oman’s plan to deploy a Clean Coal Independent Project is not pursued. Of-grid and Mini-grid - The Rural Areas Electricity Company (RAECO) is looking to add 90 MW of renewable energy capacity by 2020.
