The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia has officially completed grid connection of its landmark battery energy storage project with the nameplate capacity of 7. The project spans three sites located in the Kingdom's southwestern regions - Najran, Khamis Mushait, and Madaya.
Saudi Electricity Company (SEC) has secured two massive battery energy storage systems totaling 4. 9 GWh at a cost of just USD 73-75 per kilowatt-hour (kWh) installed, marking a potential turning point for energy storage economics outside China.
This document provides a common set of requirements for Battery Energy Storages System, known as BESS, which intend to operate in parallel with the LV & MV distribution networks of Saudi Electricity Company (SEC) in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA).
Saudi storage projects are priced between USD 73/kWh & USD 75/kWh, compared to global average of USD 165/kWh in 2024, lowering battery storage costs outside China.
The landmark project will utilize HiTHIUM's industry-leading ∞Cell 1175Ah long-duration energy storage battery cells - the world's first mass-produced thousand-amp-hour-scale storage solution - integrated into their ∞Power 6. 25MWh Desert Eagle series containerized systems.
Emerging markets in Africa and Latin America are adopting mobile container solutions for rapid electrification, with typical payback periods of 3-5 years.
