Saudi Arabia is a step closer to becoming part of the global battery industry after deals to develop lithium processing and anode material projects in the country. The deals could make Saudi Arabia’s lithium ion supply chain the most developed in the Middle East, which right now has virtually no battery material capacity. Saudi Arabia’s […]
As a result, Saudi Arabia is also investing in the battery industry because batteries are pivotal for storing and managing this renewable energy effectively, making them integral to the country’s ambitions to be a global leader in green technologies.
The 3 GWh Flow Battery production facility in Saudi Arabia is one of the biggest in the world. It will be developed in Dammam 3rd Industrial City and is part of Saudi Arabia's plan to install 57.5 GW of renewable capacity by 2030, spurring demand for new battery storage capacity in the Kingdom.
The new battery storage company in Saudi Arabia will be responsible for producing energy storage systems for use alongside utility-scale renewables projects, telecom towers, mining sites, remote cities and off-grid locations\. Saudi Arabia aims to install 57.5 GW of renewable capacity by 2030, spurring demand for new battery storage capacity in the Kingdom.
Finally, although the Arab Gulf doesn’t currently have significant reserves of key battery minerals like lithium or cobalt, the regional countries’ extensive experience in resource extraction from the oil and gas sectors could potentially be leveraged for mining elsewhere in the world and for processing minerals essential to battery production.
As the world moves toward a greener future, it is clear that advances in battery technology will play a central role in this transition, driving the shift away from polluting energy sources. With these recent developments, that future seems closer than ever. Note: Materials provided above by The Brighter Side of News.
