The renewables arm of Larsen & Toubro?s power transmission and distribution business has received approval to begin construction of the 300MW 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, 50km south-east of Jeddah. This large utility scale power plant utilises technologies including bifacial modules, single axial trackers, string inverters and robots for module cleaning.

T. Madhava Das, whole-time director and senior executive vice-president (Utilities), L&T, said, ?We are thankful and happy to be a part of establishing major solar projects awarded under the umbrella of Saudi Arabia?s pioneering National Renewable Energy Programme (NREP) marking yet another milestone in our green technology path to enable the clean energy transition.?

Earlier L&T had announced the major EPC order win for the 1.5GW Sudair project in Saudi Arabia.
