Smart Grid || Smart Grid in Saudi Arabia - Technologies, Drivers, Challenges and Supporting Policies

Smart Grid in Saudi Arabia - Technologies, Drivers, Challenges and Supporting Policies provides an analysis of the smart grid related developments in Saudi Arabia and the various factors affecting it. Saudi Arabia has 25% of the world oil reserves and is one of the major exporters of oil across the globe, while also being largely dependent on oil for its power generation. According to the Saudi Arabia Solar Industry Association (SASIA), domestic oil consumption is expected to surpass the volume of oil exported by the country by 2025. For this reason, the government is looking for alternate sources of power generation. Major emphasis has been placed on power generation using solar technology and a target has been established to up solar power generation capacity to 10% by 2020. Advance grid technologies were deployed across the power grid in Saudi Arabia before 2011. Despite being deployed to improve the efficiency of the grid, they were not labeled as smart grid technologies. In 2011, Saudi Arabia undertook the deployment of High Voltage Direct Current (HVDC) cables, smart meters, Gas-Insulated Switchgear (GIS) substations and electric vehicle infrastructure. The need to need the rising demand for electricity, improve energy efficiency and integrate renewable energy sources into the power grid is expected to encourage Saudi Arabia to adopt further smart grid technologies in the future.
