Renewable energy in saudi arabia 2030. Saudi arabia aims to increase its renewable energy production to 60 gigawatts including 40 gw from solar energy and 20 from wind and other sources by 2030. To build up the sector we have set ourselves an initial target of generating 9 5 gigawatts of renewable energy. We will also seek to localize a significant portion of the renewable energy value chain in the saudi economy including research and development and manufacturing among. Even though we have an impressive natural potential for solar and wind power and our local energy consumption will increase three fold by 2030 we still lack a competitive renewable energy sector at present.
