Photovoltaic power generation and energy storage in Saudi Arabia

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. Companies like ACWA Power International and Trina Solar Co., Ltd. are advancing photovoltaic technology, including bifacial panels and energy storage systems, making solar power more efficient and commercially viable.
