The project will elevate Qatar’s photovoltaic (PV) solar power production capacity to 4GW. Dukhan solar power plant, along with the existing Al-Kharsaah solar power plant, was inaugurated in 2022 with an 800MW capacity. Two further upcoming projects in the Ras Laffan and Mesaieed industrial cities will bolster QatarEnergy’s solar power portfolio.
The Ras Laffan and Mesaieed projects, with a combined capacity of 875MW, are anticipated to commence production before the end of 2024. With the Dukhan plant’s completion, QatarEnergy’s solar power projects within Qatar will have a total capacity of 4GW by 2030, representing almost 30% of the nation’s total electrical power production capacity.
The state-owned group, Qatar Solar Energy, is a leading manufacturer of solar power components and last year opened the largest integrated production facility for solar energy systems in the Middle East and North Africa region. Even more recently, Qatar’s Solar Technologies, took a 49% stake in German-based SolarWorld.
In August 2022, QatarEnergy awarded a QR2.3bn ($630.33m) contract to South Korea’s Samsung C&T for the construction of its industrial cities solar power project, IC Solar.. The contract covers the construction of two solar PV plants with a total clean power generation capacity of 875MW.
Construction will begin in September 2022 and is expected to finish in November 2024. When complete, the plants will supply power to facilities in the industrial complex owned by QatarEnergy and Qatar’s national electrical grid.
The project has 417MW and 458MW solar plants, to be built in Mesaieed, about 40km south of the capital Doha, and in Ras Laffan, roughly 80km north of Doha respectively. Samsung C&T E&C is the exclusive engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) contractor and will install 1.6 million solar panels.
