The market for a smart grid network in Saudi Arabia is expected to grow at CAGR of more than 3% between now and 2025, says a report by market researchers, Mordor Intelligence.

For an expanding nation like Saudi Arabia growing renewable energy and the need to modify existing grid networks to meet the growing power demand means that the market for the smart grid is expected to witness considerable growth.

As a corollary this will improve issues like the collection of revenue for electricity and address electricity theft in low-income areas. However, developing a smart grid with the pace with which Saudi Arabia is working on its renewable resources and the initial large investment for the modification of the grid could be a restraining factor for the market in the coming years.

Advanced Metering Structure is expected to drive the Saudi smart grid network significantly, providing monitoring of bi-directional flow of electricity, owing to increasing grid IT WILL BE THE FIRST development.

INTERCONNECTION Saudi Arabia plans to deploy 40 GW of solar power capacity and ALLOWING THE 20 GW of wind and other sources by 2030, which will create further EXCHANGE OF ELECTRIC opportunities for smart grid players in the upcoming period.

POWER BETWEEN SAUDI South Saudi Arabia is aiming to ARABIA AND EGYPT.” develop and renovate its ageing grid infrastructure. To meet the electricity demand the South Saudi Arabian National Energy Development Institute (SANEDI) last updated the South Saudi Arabian Smart Grid Initiative in 2017. Only last year a consortium led by Hitachi ABB Power Grids won a contract for the first HVDC interconnection in the Middle East and North Africa, enabling Saudi Arabia and Egypt to exchange up to 3 gigawatts of electricity.

More is expected to be generated from renewable energy sources in the future.The contract is worth several hundreds of millions of dollars, awarded from the Saudi Electricity Company and the Egyptian Electricity Transmission Company.

The connection will support the flow of power in multiple directions between three terminals and will be the first interconnection allowing the exchange of electric power between Saudi Arabia and Egypt. Hitachi ABB will be delivering advanced technologies for the high-voltage direct current (HVDC) power link between the countries.

This includes the supply of three HVDC converter stations located at Medina and Tabuk in KSA, and Badr in Egypt. The business will also be providing transformers, valves and high-voltage equipment.

$8.5 MILLION POWER TRANSFORMERS CONTRACT WITH OMAN Hyundai Electric & Energy Systems Co.has exported ultrahigh-voltage power transformers to Oman Electricity Transmission Co. in a deal valued at US$8.5 million.

The sales deal with Oman’s state utility provider includes three 400-kilovolt/500-megavolt ampere power transformers to be installed in a new substation north of Oman, said Hyundai Electric, an affiliate of Hyundai Heavy Industries Group,.The deal made last year boosted Hyundai Electric’s power transformer sales in the Middle Eastern region to $172 million for 2021.

In the second half of 2021, Hyundai Electric won 20 such supply contracts, including the $29.4 million deal clinched with Saudi Arabia in September 2021.

Ultra-high-voltage electricity transmission (UHV electricity transmission) has been used isince 2009 to transmit both alternating current (AC) and direct current (DC) electricity over long distances separating energy resources and consumers.

Up to voltage 500 kV, typically only a single unit of the high voltage transformer is used. Past 500 kV, it is no longer economical to use a single transformer (the size is much too big). In these situations where more than 500 kV is required, two units are cascaded in series to produce the required voltage. These products are supplied to large-scale power plants, public construction and technology factories, and play a key role in transmission & distribution systems.

IN BRIEF THREE 1MWA GENSETS PERFORM WELL AT IRAQ POLICE ACADEMY

TWO MONTHS TO GO BEFORE AL LAYAH POWER PLANT EXTENSION IS FULLY OPERATIONAL Scheduled for completion in July 2022, the Al Layyah power plant expansion includes the construction of a new 1.026GW natural gas-fired combined-cycle power plant within the existing Layyah power plant site in Sharjah, United Arab Emirates (UAE).

TESLA BATTERY SYSTEM NOW ONLINE AT WORLD’S LARGEST SOLAR FARM IN DUBAI

$3.6 BILLION POWER TRANSMISSION PROJECT FOR THE UAE

The Dubai Electricity and Water Authority (DEWA) is operating a new battery energy storage system (BESS) powered by Tesla’s Powerpack at the Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Solar Park, currently the world’s largest single-site photovoltaic solar farm.

The Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Solar Park, located 50km (31 miles) south of Dubai in the United Arab Emirates, has already achieved 1GW of on-site solar generation capacity.

The BESS pilot project installed in September 2021 deploys 1.21MW of output, and 8.61MWh of capacity’s worth of Tesla’s Powerpack energy storage product.

The Powerpack is Tesla’s BESS product for commercial, industrial, and light utility-scale use cases.

“The energy storage project using Tesla’s lithium-ion battery solution at the Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Solar Park, the largest single-site solar park in the world, aims to diversify the energy mix and enhance energy storage technologies in the UAE,” comments DEWA managing director and CEO Saeed Mohammed Al Tayer.

“The pilot project will evaluate the technical and economic capabilities of this technology within the operational framework of electricity systems in solar photovoltaic power plants. It also tests the role of this technology in the integration between clean energy and energy storage to achieve maximum efficiency and reliability.”

The Powerpack-driven BESS at the Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Solar Park is the second-largest energy storage solution at the facility. Both energy storage systems at the solar park support bi-directional flow of electricity both to and from the grid, so energy can be stored from solar power.

A consortium of EDF, KEPCO and Kyushu Electric Power Co has signed a US$3.6 billion strategic power transmission project, alongside the UAE’s Abu Dhabi National Oil Company (ADNOC) and Abu Dhabi National Electricity Company PJSC (TAQA), to develop and operate a high voltage project.

This radically new scheme involves a high voltage direct current (HVDC-VSC) subsea transmission system.

This is the first-of-its-kind in the Middle East and North Africa region and could be followed by many more.

The project will connect ADNOC’s offshore

165 MW GAS POWER PLANT FOR AN OIL & GAS SITE IN KURDISTAN

Diesel generator company, Enrogen, based in York, UK, has signed a deal to provide 30MW of diesel generators for a large data centre in Saudi Arabia.

The twelve 2.5MVA generators will provide backup for a new data center being built by a “global computer company,” in the North East of Saudi Arabia.

The customer is likely to be Google, which has announced a new cloud region based in Dammam, a city in Saudi Arabia’s Eastern Region.

The contract represents Enrogen’s biggest-ever deal and will double turnover at the family firm which was founded in 2005 by brothers-inlaw James Brown and Gavin Wilkinson. The company is building new capacity at its factory in Pocklington near York, UK, and will be employing more staff, reports Enrogen.

“It’s already won us the ‘Exporter of the Year’ 2021 award from the Association of Manufacturing Power Systems,” comments sales director Kevin Griffiths, “and there’s no doubt this deal will get us noticed in this industry.” He hopes for more Middle Eastern deals following on from this, seeing it as a “real growth center at the moment.”

The Saudi contract is being handled by a UK intermediary which commissioned Enrogen, based on its ability to put together a bespoke backup system. The project will use twelve 2.5 MVA, 16-cylinder (60 litres), 2700hp engines, which will be housed in acoustic containers at the data centr.e Enrogen says the facility is being built at a large new business park with its own road and rail network.

Aggreko has completed commissioning of the largest flare gas to power project in the Middle East to date at 165 MW capacity. The plant is situated nearby the Saqala Field, Garmain block, South East Kurdistan.

The Sarqala oil field lies in the Garmian Block located in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq (KRI).

The Sarqala oil field is estimated to hold proven and probable reserves of 13 million barrels of oil, as well as prospective reserves of 66 million barrels.

The field contains light crude oil with an API gravity of 40°.

The 165 MW modular power plant installed by Aggreko at this location has run at full capacity for 72 hours in the project’s final site acceptance test, marking successful on-time, on-budget delivery.

The plant is run on approximately 40 MMft3d of associated petroleum gas from the Saqala Field, saving 840 tons of CO2 per day, and

WASTE-TO-ENERGY

MAY 2022

BUILDING WORKS COMPLETED ON SHARJAH’S FIRST WASTE-TO-ENERGY PLANT

T

he Sharjah Waste to Energy plant is the first project of Emirates Waste to Energy, a joint venture established by BEEAH Energy, the renewable energy business of BEEAH Group, and Masdar, one of the world’s leading renewable energy companies.

Masdar, in partnership with Bee’ah, the Middle East’s leading and award-winning environmental management company, is developing a cutting-edge waste-to-energy plant in the emirate of Sharjah.

Diverting more than 300,000 tonnes of solid municipal waste from landfill each year, it will contribute to the UAE’s goal to divert 75 percent of solid waste from landfills.

The facility will process more than 37.5 tonnes per hour of municipal solid waste to generate electric power and will be located adjacent to Bee’ah’s existing Material Recovery Facility in Sharjah, where the emirate’s waste is collected, sorted, recycled and, where necessary, sent to landfills.

The waste-to-energy process converts the waste into produced heat which is then used to drive an electrical turbine.

The net electrical power produced will be up to 30 MW which will be supplied directly to the Sharjah electricity grid. The flue gas of the waste processing will be environmentally treated before being released into the atmosphere.

The partnership between Bee’ah and Masdar was officially announced during ADSW 2017 with signature of the Joint Development Agreement.

Bee’ah, headquartered in the Emirate of Sharjah, is an integrated environmental and waste management company, founded in 2007, through an Emiri decree

by His Highness Sheikh Dr. Sultan Bin Mohammed Al Qasimi, Member of the Supreme Council and Ruler of Sharjah, as a Public Private Partnership (PPP) with the Sharjah City Municipality.

Bee’ah collects approximately 2.3 million tonnes of waste from nearly one million households in Sharjah each year, diverting around 70 percent of its collected waste from landfill to its recycling waste management facilities.

Pre-feasibility studies of the project were completed in 2016, while the Emirates Waste to Energy joint venture between Bee’ah and Masdar was established to develop the project in May 2017.

Bee’ah is an integrated environmental and waste management company, which was established as a public private partnership (PPP) with the Sharjah City Municipality in 2007. It collects and processes approximately 2.3 million tonnes (Mt) of waste a year

MIDDLE EAST POWER

from one million Sharjah households.

Masdar is a renewable energy comapny, which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of state-owned Mubadala Investment Company.

The plant will help achieve Sharjah’s zero waste-to-landfill target as well as the UAE’s goal of diverting 75% of solid waste from landfills by 2022.

The Sharjah waste-to-energy project is being developed within the Bee’ah’s waste management centre (WMC) in Al Saj’ah.

The plant will be deployed with the CNIM/Martin reverse acting grate for the combustion process.

The bars of the reverse acting grate move in the opposite direction to the downward gravitational pull of the solid waste, which allows homogenous air distribution during combustion.

Waste products will be incinerated to produce heat up to 1,200°C, which will be recovered using an integrated heat recovery boiler. The steam produced by the boiler will be used to drive a steam turbine to generate electricity.

Flue gas generated in the process will be treated before being released into the atmosphere. The plant’s emissions levels will comply with the European Union’s (EU) environmental standards.

Support infrastructure facilities of the plant include air and water supply systems and an ash handling facility.

The electricity generated by the plant will be sold to Sharjah Electricity

and Water Authority (SEWA) under a long-term power purchase agreement (PPA) signed in May 2017.

A 20-year term loan of £127m ($162m) from a consortium of lenders including Abu Dhabi Fund for Development, Abu Dhabi Commercial Bank, Siemens Financial Services, Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation, and Standard Chartered Bank was secured for the project in October 2018.

The project won the Thomson Reuters Project Finance International (PFI) Award for Clean Deal of the Year 2018 for the Middle East and Africa region.

Bee’ah’s waste management centre at Al Saj’ah collects segregates, and recycles approximately 2.3Mt of municipal waste a year.

It already houses a 35MW gasification plant capable of processing approximately 160,000t of non-recyclable solid waste a year.

Featured at the site is a material recovery facility (MRF), which was retrofitted with advanced recycling technology in 2018 to become one of the world’s biggest producers of recovered plastics.

The design, build, and operate (DBO) contract for the Sharjah waste-to-energy plant was finalised with CNIM in January 2018.

Ramboll was appointed as the advisor for the planning and implementation of the project. www.beeahgroup.com

HIGH VOLTAGE POWER CABLES NOW DEPLOYED IN DUBAI & ABU DHABI - ALSO BOUND FOR IRAQ

D

ucab HV is the first dedicated high voltage (60-150kV) and extra high voltage (220-500kV) solutions provider in the Middle East. Set up in 2009, as a joint venture between Ducab, Dubai’s Electricity and Water Authority, and the Department of Energy in Abu Dhabi, it operates from an advanced manufacturing and testing facility in Dubai.

With a footprint in 45 countries around the globe, the Ducab Group is jointly owned by Investment Corporation of Dubai and Abu Dhabi’s ADQ and is a global leader in providing solutions to the world’s energy sector.

Sharjah Electricity and Water Authority (SEWA) used Ducab HV-manufactured cables for its longest ever high-voltage power circuit. The project, which runs between Muwaileh and Sajaa, was completed within a short period of time to meet the energy demands of Sharjah.

Using Ducab HV cables, SEWA’s latest circuit strengthens its existing network, allowing for future development of power supply to Rahmaniyah, Sharjah Airport Free Zone, and University City.

The project uses more than 160km of 132kV cables, which were supplied and installed by Ducab HV. Abdulla Ali, installations manager at Ducab HV, said: “This was our largest project to date, and we are exceptionally proud of our work with SEWA. “Being a local company enabled us to be agile enough to deliver to their requirements in a short time, thereby providing SEWA with the opportunity to complete

“

this landmark project in a quick and efficient manner. Ducab HV would like to congratulate SEWA on the successful conclusion of this project.”

May Al leem, PPD director at SEWA, said: “Ducab HV was able to provide us with cabling for our new circuit in a timely and cost-effective manner.

“Our experience in this collaboration was positive from start to finish, demonstrating the very real benefits of using local suppliers as opposed to importing materials.

“With the new cabling in place, we are now able to better meet the growing energy demands of Sharjah City, with the potential to expand as needed.”

In 2022 52 km and 120 km of MV and LV cable – DEWA & BS - was delivered to the US$850 million container terminal at Jebel Ali Port.

This is one of the most advanced marine terminals in the world, with a quay length of 1,860 metres, a 70-hectare storage yard, and a draft of 17 metres.

The Ducab group has signed a 288 km power line construction contract as part of a project implemented by GE’s network solutions unit for renewable energy solutions in iraq.

The cables will be used in the

construction of power transmission lines extending to 288 km from the upper lines. The project is in line with wide-ranging plans to develop iraq’s electricity sector and upgrade the country’s position as a regional energy hub by constructing smart and sustainable electricity transmission networks.

The project will help provide reliable and sophisticated sources of electricity, thereby supporting many other sectors in line with the overall iraqi economic development strategy, The World Bank expecting the iraqi economy to register a growth rate of 6.3% over the next two years, thanks in part to the electrification proiject.

Ducab participated in GE’s tender for renewable energy solutions for design, supply, installation and testing services for 400 kv connection lines for power transmission lines between the Hashemite kingdom of Jordan and the Al-qaim region of iraq. . This has been accompanied through the reintroducation of a programme dedicated to engineering, procurement and construction, and the supply of equipment, products and solutions for substation projects and power transmission lines (400 kv/132 kv). www.ducab.com
