The project is expected to be completed by Q4 2026 and marks a significant step in enhancing Oman’s power infrastructure and regional energy cooperation. The direct electricity connection Oman to GCC Grid will significantly improve power grid security and allow for more efficient electricity transfer capacity.
This interconnection of Oman power to GCC will drive renewable energy development and help achieve fuel savings. By increasing electricity transfer capacity, the project will also contribute to economic savings in the region. The new interconnection includes:
Economic Savings: Lower capital (CAPEX) and operational (OPEX) expenditures. In 2023, Oman achieved: 93,029.56 MWh of power exports to the GCCIA grid. 85,089.46 MWh of power imports from the GCCIA grid. These figures highlight Oman’s active role in regional power exchange, leveraging interconnectivity to address local and regional energy demands.
Fuel Savings: Reduction in gas and diesel consumption for power generation. Economic Savings: Lower capital (CAPEX) and operational (OPEX) expenditures. In 2023, Oman achieved: 93,029.56 MWh of power exports to the GCCIA grid. 85,089.46 MWh of power imports from the GCCIA grid.
