L&T to begin construction of solar plant in Jeddah

The renewables arm of Larsen & Toubro’s (L&T) power transmission and distribution business has secured the go-ahead to begin constructing the 300 MW Jeddah solar PV power plant. The turnkey EPC order has been received from the consortium of Masdar, EDF Renewables and Nesma Company.

Awarded by Saudi Arabia’s Renewable Energy Project Development Office (REPDO) to the consortium under design, finance, build and operate mode, the project has now attained financial closure after the signing of the power purchase agreement and thereby the notice to Larsen & Toubro to proceed with the construction.

The project is in third Jeddah Industrial City, 50 km south-east of Jeddah. This utility scale power plant utilises technologies including bifacial modules, single axial trackers, string inverters and robots for module cleaning.

As we have reported earlier, L&T had announced an EPC order it secured for the 1.5 GW Sudair project in Saudi Arabia.
