PV Hardware (PVH), a global leader in solar tracking solutions, has announced its strategic role in the Rabigh 2 Solar PV Plant, a landmark 376.26 MW utility-scale project located in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA).
Developed jointly by Al Jomaih Water and Electricity Company and TotalEnergies, with SEPCO International leading the engineering, procurement, and construction, Rabigh 2 stands as a significant milestone in Saudi Arabia’s National Renewable Energy Program (NREP).
The project plays a vital role in advancing the Kingdom’s Vision 2030 goals for a sustainable and diversified energy future.
The Rabigh 2 project, which has recently been awarded under the third round of Saudi Arabia’s National Renewable Energy Program (NREP), will contribute significantly to the country’s renewable energy capacity.
PV Hardware trackers to improve efficiency and cut EPC costs
PV Hardware will supply its cutting-edge AxoneDuo Infinity solar tracking systems to ensure maximum efficiency and optimal performance in the region’s challenging environmental conditions, along with its latest improvement in Terrain Response technology, which protects the topsoil and helps restore soil after decommissioning of the project site. It will also save costs for the EPC with 90 percent less ramming and earthworks.
This project further strengthens PV Hardware’s presence in the Middle East and reinforces its commitment to supporting the Kingdom’s Vision 2030 goals through innovative and locally adapted solar solutions. PVH’s advanced tracker technology is designed to withstand extreme desert conditions, offering high durability and performance with minimal maintenance.
“We are pleased to collaborate with SEPCO to have a healthy partnership and lasting relationship. It’s been amazing to work with the SEPCO, to have a smooth discussion, and to build this partnership. We are working towards innovating the best solar trackers in the industry and leading the way for many more such projects,” said Surmai Kaushik, VP Sales AMEA at PV Hardware.
This partnership focuses on developing the Rabigh 2 Solar IPP under Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030, which aims to diversify the Kingdom’s energy sector. The project features one of the region’s lowest solar tariffs at $1.78 per kWh, making it a major step toward achieving the country’s renewable energy targets and reducing dependence on oil.
The Rabigh 2 plant is expected to generate enough clean electricity to power over 200,000 homes, significantly reducing carbon emissions while strengthening the country’s renewable infrastructure.
