The main technologies Saudi Arabia employs are photovoltaic and concentrated solar power. Of these two, photovoltaic (PV) systems are the most commonly applied throughout Saudi Arabia. They produce clean electricity by converting solar energy through semiconductor materials. Between different PV systems, research shows that sun-tracking systems such as the 1-axis tracking system and the 2-axis tracking system produce the greatest amount of energy compare. [pdf]
Saudi Arabia has unveiled the world's largest solar-power facility, with a generation capacity of 2,060 MW, which is expected to start operations by the end of 2025.
The Lunch of Saudi Solar Energy Program Sakaka, Al Shuaibah, and Sudair Solar Energy Projects have been completed By 2030, the gaol is 40GW PV solar and 2.7GW (CSP) concentrated solar power capacity
Key locations include Sakaka in Al Jouf Province, Al Shuaibah in Makkah Province, and Sudair in Riyadh Province, among others. These projects capitalize on Saudi Arabia's geographical position and favorable weather conditions to generate solar power. Solar energy is set to expand nationwide.
The Sakaka Solar Power Plant is also setting records in the solar industry. It has achieved a levelized cost of energy, coming in at just $0.023 per kWh. And with Saudi Arabia's unique geographical and climatic advantages, using renewable energy sources like this one is an economically attractive option for the Kingdom.
The Saudi agency in charge of developing the nations renewable energy sector, Ka-care, announced in May 2012 that the nation would install 41 gigawatts (GW) of solar capacity by 2032. It was projected to be composed of 25 GW of solar thermal, and 16 GW of photovoltaics.
Leveraging its abundant sunshine and vast desert areas, Saudi Arabia is now pivoting to solar energy, aligning with its Vision 2030 plan to diversify its economy and ensure sustainable growth by reducing oil dependency and investing in renewable energy.

Service stacking is a promising method to improve energy storage system integration. There are several interesting cases where service stacking is crucial. Frequency supportive services are the most common to add when expanding portfolios. There is no standard method to solve optimization of service portfolios.
Battery storage systems can add significant value to the grid and to project developers by providing multiple services, known as value-stacking. This multi-use approach to battery energy storage systems (BESS) is essential for maximizing their overall value.
To ensure that an energy storage investment is guaranteed a reasonable payback period and a good return of investment it is advantageous to consider the possibility of service stacking. By offering additional services in turns or in parallel with the main service it is possible to create important revenue streams.
Storage units that are operating mainly for a service with large seasonal variation, service stacking has a great potential to be implemented. RES integration and T&D investment deferral are two examples of such services which both include large annual variations.
The opposite is valid for a power demanding main service. One interesting approach is to consider service stacking already during the dimensioning process. This approach requires an optimization of the storage size given the specified portfolio, accounting for all relevant services included.
Service stacking, alternatively value stacking or revenue stacking, is a promising method to optimize and maximize the technical and economic potential of an ESS. The aim is to find one or more additional services which the ESS can provide, besides of the main service. Offering additional services results in higher degree of utilization of the ESS.
