The strategic partnership spans solar and wind energy, advancing the Middle East<\/span><\/i>‘s transition to green energy.<\/i><\/p>\n

SHANGHAI<\/span><\/span>, April 22, 2025<\/span><\/span> \/PRNewswire\/ — Shanghai Electric<\/a>\u00a0(SEHK:2727, SSE:601727) reached two milestone cooperation agreements in the Middle East<\/span> in early April, signing a 2-gigawatt photovoltaic project agreement with Abu Dhabi Future Energy (“Masdar”) in Saudi Arabia<\/span> and a comprehensive wind power cooperation agreement with Oman’s<\/span> Mawarid Group. The agreements support Saudi Arabia’s<\/span> Vision 2030 and Oman Vision 2040 initiatives. They aim to advance the Middle East’s<\/span> energy transformation through technology exports, localized manufacturing, and multi-sector collaboration.<\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n

The 2-gigawatt Sadawi photovoltaic project, developed in cooperation with Masdar, is Shanghai Electric’s largest solar EPC project globally. Spanning 40 square kilometers, it generates more than 6 billion kWh annually, meeting the electricity needs of 700,000 households and cutting carbon emissions by 3 million tons. The project leverages advanced photovoltaic technology to maximize Saudi Arabia’s<\/span> abundant sunshine and is a key component of the country’s National Renewable Energy Program.<\/p>\n

In Oman<\/span>, Shanghai Electric’s partnership with Mawarid Group includes wind turbine supply, technology transfer, and localized factory design. The collaboration aims to harness Oman’s<\/span> natural resources, create a local supply chain, and promote long-term economic growth.<\/p>\n

“This is a new starting point for Shanghai Electric and Masdar to carry out comprehensive cooperation and an important milestone for Shanghai Electric to further establish itself in the Middle East’s<\/span> new energy market,” said Wu Lei<\/span>, Chairman of Shanghai Electric Group<\/b>. “I hope both parties will work together to create a benchmark demonstration project and contribute more to the global energy transition.”<\/p>\n

Masdar CEO Mohamed Jameel\u00a0Al Ramahi<\/b> commented, “Masdar attaches great importance to its partnership with Shanghai Electric and looks forward to further deepening cooperation with them in wind power, photovoltaics, energy storage, and other fields in the future to jointly promote the transformation of the global energy structure.”<\/p>\n

Salim Al Aufi<\/span>, Omani Minister of Energy and Minerals<\/b>, praised Shanghai Electric’s technological expertise and innovation in wind power. He said the Omani government values its partnership with Shanghai Electric and sees the signing of the wind power project as an opportunity to expand cooperation. Al Aufi expressed the government’s eagerness to deepen collaboration in areas such as energy storage, hydrogen energy, and photovoltaics, aiming to jointly drive the transformation of Oman’s<\/span> energy sector.<\/p>\n

Wu Lei\u00a0said<\/b>, “The Omani government’s forward-looking Vision 2040 and Green Hydrogen Strategy align with Shanghai Electric’s strategic development goals. We are eager to use this project as an opportunity to integrate advanced technologies and high-quality products in the new energy sector with Oman’s<\/span> resource strengths and market potential. Through technology licensing and localized supply chain development, we aim to drive the implementation of more high-quality projects, contribute to Oman’s<\/span> energy transformation, and help shape a new chapter in China<\/span>-Arab energy cooperation.”<\/p>\n

The strategic significance and industrial value of the agreements are substantial. The wind power project in Oman<\/span> is expected to advance the country’s transition from traditional energy sources to diversified clean energy, including wind and hydrogen, while also deepening China<\/span>-Arab technical cooperation. Meanwhile, the photovoltaic project in Saudi Arabia<\/span> directly supports the kingdom’s efforts to reduce its reliance on fossil fuels, contribute to economic diversification, and establish a foundation for Shanghai Electric’s broader expansion in the Middle East’s<\/span> solar energy market.<\/p>\n

The dual collaboration in the Middle East<\/span> showcases Shanghai Electric’s technology-driven, localized approach, reinforcing its status as a global leader in renewable energy through its expertise and innovation in wind and solar power.<\/p>\n
