Power sector awards momentum accelerates
26 December 2024

The Middle East and North Africa (Mena) region’s power sector awarded over $60bn of contracts between January and early November 2024, up 47.5% compared to the value of awarded contracts in the previous full year.
This figure is more than double the average value of annual contract awards recorded between 2014 and 2023, based on data from regional projects tracker MEED Projects.
It also exceeds by 21% the total combined value of contracts awarded between 2018 and 2020, when some regional governments and utilities began pivoting to renewable energy and freezing the expansion of thermal plant capacities, in line with goals aimed at decarbonising their electricity systems.
In 2020, the Covid-19 pandemic slowed down project activity and temporarily delayed the awarding of some contracts.
The market staged a short-lived comeback in 2021, when Saudi Arabia awarded a string of contracts for solar photovoltaic (PV) independent power projects (IPPs), including a contract to develop the 600MW Shoaiba solar PV scheme, which holds the world record for the lowest unsubsidised solar PV production at $cents1.04 a kilowatt-hour.
A slight contraction occurred the following year due to a spike in raw materials and engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) costs.
Last year saw a stunning recovery, however, helped by the award of new renewable energy projects in Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Egypt and Oman, as well as by a resumption of contract awards for new gas-fired power plants, particularly in Saudi Arabia, Libya and Iraq.
Yet 2024 is set to outshine 2023 in terms of awarded contracts for thermal, renewable energy and nuclear power generation plants, as well as for power transmission and distribution (T&D) infrastructure such as substations and overhead transmission lines.
Major 2024 awards
In 2023, power generation projects accounted for an estimated 79% of total contract awards, with T&D projects accounting for the rest.
A different picture is emerging in 2024, with data in the first nine months of the year suggesting that generation contract awards are retreating to about 64% of the total. This is due to increased T&D capital spending that has so far driven a 150% increase in award value compared to full-year 2023.
This is a clear indicator of T&D capacity buildout catching up with the generation capacity expansion, especially as larger economies such as Saudi Arabia strive to set up stronger and more efficient electricity links domestically, and as the energy-rich GCC states seek to establish stronger electricity links with one another and with their neighbours, including Egypt, Iraq and Jordan.
Saudi Arabia has dominated the overall Mena power contracts landscape. Its share of 29% in 2022 soared to 61% in 2023 and 67% in the first 10-11 months of 2024.
In May, principal buyer Saudi Power Procurement Company (SPPC) signed two power-purchase agreements with Japan’s Marubeni Corporation for contracts to develop two wind IPPs under the fourth round of the National Renewable Energy Programme (NREP). The Al-Ghat and Waad Al-Shamal wind IPPs have a total combined capacity of 1,100MW.
The contract for a third wind IPP, tendered as part of round four of the NREP, is also expected to be awarded soon.
In June, Saudi sovereign wealth vehicle the Public Investment Fund (PIF) let the fourth batch of solar PV schemes, which it is implementing bilaterally through the Price Discovery Scheme.
A team comprising Acwa Power, PIF-backed Water & Electricity Holding Company (Badeel) and Saudi Aramco Power Company (Sapco), a subsidiary of the state majority-owned oil giant Saudi Aramco, will develop the three solar projects, which will have a total combined capacity of 5,500MW and will require an investment of about $3.3bn.
The Haden solar PV and Muwayh solar power plants, which will each have a capacity of 2,000MW, will be located in Saudi Arabia’s Mecca region. The third project, the 1,500MW Al-Khushaybi solar PV plant, will be located in the Qassim region. The three new solar PV facilities are expected to become operational in the first half of 2027.
In early November, SPPC also announced the winning bidders for the contracts to develop four combined-cycle gas turbine plants comprising the second batch of thermal capacity that it has tendered since 2023. The four plants, located in Riyadh and the Eastern Province, will each have a capacity of 1,800MW and will require an investment of about $2bn each.
A developer consortium comprising the UAE-based Abu Dhabi National Energy Company (Taqa), Japan’s Jera Company and the local Albawani Company successfully bid for the contracts to develop and operate the Rumah 2 and Nairiyah 2 IPPs. Meanwhile, Saudi Electricity Company (SEC), Riyadh-based utility developer Acwa Power and South Korea’s Korea Electric Power Corporation (Kepco) won the contracts to develop and operate the similarly configured Rumah 1 and Nairiyah 1 IPPs.
State utility SEC is also understood to have issued the limited notices to proceed for six greenfield thermal power plants with a total combined capacity of over 16,000MW.
Power generation projects for which final contracts are expected to be awarded before the end of 2024 include:
- Hajr: 3,600MW
- Marjan: 1,800MW
- Riyadh PP12: 1,800MW
- Qurayyah: 3,600MW
- Ghazlan 1: 2,400MW
- Ghazlan 2: 2,900MW
The $5.3bn high-voltage direct current network project connecting the central, western and southern regions of Saudi Arabia was the single largest power contract awarded in Saudi Arabia in 2024.
The UAE, meanwhile, has awarded three key power contracts this year, including for the Al-Ajban solar IPP, which was won by a team of France’s EDF and South Korea’s Korea Western Power Company (Kowepo), and for the Dhafra waste-to-energy project, which a team of Japan’s Marubeni Corporation, Japan Overseas Infrastructure Investment Corporation and Zurich-headquartered Hitachi Zosen Inova is developing.
Dubai Electricity & Water Authority (Dewa) is also understood to have awarded the contract to complete the Jebel Ali K-Station to Egypt-based Power Generation Engineering & Services Company.
2025 outlook
The Mena power projects pipeline remains robust, with over $45bn-worth of contracts under bid evaluation and another $50bn in the prequalification stage as of late 2024, according to MEED Projects.
Saudi Arabia is likely to remain dominant, particularly if SPPC and the PIF activate a plan by the Energy Ministry to procure 20,000MW of renewable energy capacity annually until it reaches its target for renewables to account for half of its energy production mix by 2030.
Morocco has the second-largest power projects pipeline thanks to several planned schemes to export clean energy and green hydrogen to Europe. Notably, the tender is under way for the country’s first two solar PV plus battery energy storage system (bess) projects, Noor Midelt 2 and 3.
Abu Dhabi also maintains a substantial renewables and gas-fired generation project pipeline. It has several upcoming IPPs with a total combined capacity of over 7,000MW, of which more than 6,000MW is in the tendering stage.
While the procurement process for Saudi Arabia’s first nuclear power plant in Duwaiheen has been delayed, the UAE has plans to procure the next phase of its nuclear power plant project in Barakah.
Green industrial development in steel and aluminium, as is being undertaken in the UAE, is a driver for ongoing clean energy capacity buildout, notes Karen Young, senior research scholar at Columbia University’s Centre on Global Energy Policy.
Egypt, Iran, Kuwait and Iraq have the next largest power projects pipelines. The key drivers in each state vary, with populous countries Egypt and Iran seeking to develop integrated green hydrogen hubs and nuclear power capacity, respectively, while Kuwait remains a promising market with extended plans to procure both conventional and renewable energy capacity to address peak demand.
There are indications that Iraq’s first utility-scale solar PV scheme – a 1GW project being developed by France’s TotalEnergies – will head into the construction stage in the coming months, along with other similar projects for which preliminary agreements were signed by Iraqi authorities in 2021-22.
Oman is actively pursuing renewable energy capacity, with the state offtaker having tendered the contracts for two wind IPPs in September 2024.
In Oman and Qatar, the main downstream companies, Petroleum Development Oman and QatarEnergy, are developing renewable energy capacity as a means of mitigating their greenhouse gas emissions, as well as to support their respective government’s net-zero targets.
In November, Bahrain started the procurement process for its fourth independent water and power project (IWPP) in Sitra, which replaced the previously planned Al-Dur IWPP 3 scheme.

Other trends
SEC affiliate National Grid Saudi Arabia has awarded EPC contracts for several bess packages to local firm Algihaz this year. In August, it tendered a contract for the construction of a further 2,500MW of energy storage capacity.
In parallel, the procurement process is under way for the first independent bess packages in Saudi Arabia and Abu Dhabi, with other utilities expected to follow suit in procuring bess using an IPP model. Bess will boost grid flexibility and spinning reserves in the face of increased renewable energy capacity and demand.
In addition to bess and several gigawatts of solar and wind capacity, Saudi Arabia gigaproject developer Neom, which plans to be powered 100% by renewable energy by the end of the decade, is also considering a network of large-scale pumped hydropower storage plants.
However, despite the ongoing capacity buildout across the Mena states, some end-users – particularly in fossil fuel-
scarce jurisdictions such as Morocco – continue to struggle with supply.
“I’ve been part of a research project in Morocco looking at the renewable power landscape and green economy more broadly. In that case, we do see massive buildout, but it is tailored for offtake to state-related industrials,” says Columbia University’s Young.
She adds that a telephone survey of 1,000 small and medium-sized businesses in Morocco about their perception of the accessibility and affordability of renewable energy yielded surprising results.
“They strongly suggested a lack of support, given that smaller enterprises continue to see power outages and this has in many cases caused damage to their equipment and abilities to stay open and service customers.
“The disconnect between power buildout and industrial advances in a green supply chain and how small and medium firms see power accessibility and reliability is very stark. In a Mena-wide sense, we might start to question how the delivery and transmission of power in an equitable way affects economic growth opportunities overall.”

Egypt prepares to tender five water treatment plants25 May 2026
Egypt is preparing to tender five seawater desalination and industrial wastewater treatment plants under its public-private partnership (PPP) programme.
The projects will be offered to local and international investors through competitive PPP tenders, Atter Hannoura, head of the PPP unit at the Finance Ministry, has told a local Arabic news channel.
The first of these involves a plant in the Suez Canal Economic Zone, which will be launched “immediately after the Eid Al-Adha holiday”, Hannoura said.
In January 2025, MEED exclusively reported that SCZone Istithmar had invited interested firms to prequalify to bid for a contract to develop a seawater desalination plant in the Suez Canal Economic Zone.
SCZOne Istithmar is wholly owned by the General Authority for Suez Canal Economic Zone.
The Finance Ministry’s PPP Central Unit, along with the European Bank for Reconstruction & Development, is supporting SCZone Isthithmar in the project’s tender proceedings.
The opportunity entails a long-term water-purchase agreement to design, finance, build, operate, maintain and transfer the plant’s ownership.
It was previously reported that this planned seawater desalination plant will have a capacity of 250,000 cubic metres a day (cm/d).
Hannoura added that the government is in negotiations with several companies, including Saudi Arabia-based Acwa, regarding large-scale desalination projects.
Additionally, the government plans to tender four industrial wastewater treatment plants, with the first two projects expected to be launched “within 45 days”.
One of these will be located in the Amreya industrial area in Alexandria, while the other will be in the Abu Rawash area in Giza, Hannoura said. Details of the other projects were not disclosed.
Alexandria wastewater treatment plant
The Authority for Potable Water and Wastewater is planning to build a wastewater treatment plant in eastern Alexandria.
The $150m facility will have a water treatment capacity of 300,000 cm/d.
In June 2025, Egypt’s government approved a financing and grant agreement for the project, with financing from the French Development Agency amounting to €68m and a grant of €2m.
Expression of interest documents were previously submitted in September 2024.
The main contract for this plant had been expected to be released in June.
Wastewater upgrades
Separately, the Construction Authority for Potable Water & Wastewater retendered the phase four expansion of the Abu Rawash wastewater treatment plant in Giza Governorate in January.
The $157m scheme will be developed under a design, build, operate and maintain contract.
The plant will have a treatment capacity of 400,000 cm/d, rising to peak flows of 520,000 cm/d. The authority issued the initial main contract tender last August.
It is unconfirmed whether this has moved beyond the bidding stage.
Egypt currently produces between 1.5 million cm/d and 2 million cm/d of desalinated water. The country aims to increase capacity to between 8 million cm/d and 9 million cm/d by 2050.
In March, Egypt’s cabinet approved a $1.2m grant agreement with the European Investment Bank to support wastewater treatment upgrades in Alexandria and Damietta.
Part of the funding will support plans to expand the Hanovil wastewater treatment plant in Alexandria Governorate.
The project will add 50,000 cm/d of treatment capacity in two phases within the plant’s existing footprint. Once completed, the facility will reach a total capacity of 100,000 cm/d.
The grant will also support expansion works at the Kafr El-Battikh wastewater treatment plant in Damietta Governorate.
The facility currently receives more than 7,000 cm/d of wastewater, while its treatment capacity is 3,000 cm/d.

Momentum builds for Syrian projects25 May 2026

Support from the US, as well as the closure of the Strait of Hormuz, has increased expectations about the development of infrastructure projects in Syria.
On 22 May, the US published guides to investing in Syria, funded by the US Department of State, that pointed investors towards 590 planned projects in the country.
The permanent removal of US sanctions in December last year, combined with fallout from the closure and disruption to shipping through the Strait of Hormuz, has boosted interest in planned projects in the country.
Shipping through the Strait of Hormuz has been disrupted since the US and Israel attacked Iran on 28 February.
The route normally transports about 11 million barrels a day of oil and around 20% of the world’s liquefied natural gas, as well as a range of other key materials and consumer goods.
The disruption to shipping through the strait has left nations in the Middle East scrambling to find new routes for imports and exports – and Syria plays a role in many of these new plans.
This has bolstered the country’s plans to become a regional trade hub.
Energy corridors
Already, Iraq is moving a large volume of oil by truck across the country to export it from Syria’s Mediterranean ports, such as Latakia or Tartous.
In April, Iraq’s state-owned oil marketing company, Somo, said it had awarded contracts to supply about 650,000 metric tonnes of fuel oil per month for overland trucking across Syria.
On top of this, Iraq is currently looking into reestablishing a pipeline route that transported oil from Kirkuk to the port of Baniyas in Syria.
The pipeline originally went into operation in April 1952.
During the 2003 invasion of Iraq, the pipeline was damaged by US air strikes and has remained out of operation since then.
There have been repeated attempts to either refurbish the existing pipeline or build a new one along the same route, but none has been successful.
In December 2007, Syria and Iraq agreed to rehabilitate the pipeline. The pipeline was to be reconstructed by Stroytransgaz, a subsidiary of Russia’s Gazprom.
However, Stroytransgaz failed to start the rehabilitation, and the contract was nullified in April 2009.
The disruption to shipping through the Strait of Hormuz has added a new urgency to the project to reestablish pipeline flows from Iraq to Baniyas.
Syria could also play a role in plans for a pipeline to transport gas from Qatar to Europe via Syria and Turkiye.
The country could additionally form part of plans to rehabilitate and expand the Arab Gas Pipeline.
The pipeline connects Egypt, Jordan, Syria and Lebanon, although the Lebanese section is not currently operational.
Trade routes
Beyond oil and gas, Syria is emerging as a key part of other plans for new trade routes.
Earlier this month, Syria’s Transport Minister Yarub Badr said the country was seeking to restore its role as a regional transit corridor linking Europe and the Gulf by reviving cross-border trucking and rehabilitating railway connections with neighbouring countries.
He said the overland corridor between the Turkish and Jordanian borders handled between 100,000 and 115,000 trucks annually in both directions before 2011. Freight rail services also operated between Tartous port and Iraq’s Umm Qasr port via Baghdad in 2009, he added.
He said Syria was coordinating with Turkiye, Jordan and Saudi Arabia to simplify customs and border-crossing procedures and facilitate freight movement.
Railway rehabilitation is expected to take longer due to extensive infrastructure damage and the suspension of cross-border rail links over the past decade.
Badr said Syria is working with the World Bank to secure grants ranging between $65m and $200m to support railway rehabilitation and restore Syria’s role as a regional transit route linking Turkiye, Syria, Jordan and Iraq.
Earlier this month, Syria’s state-owned railway company, the General Establishment for Syrian Railways, and the operator of Syria’s Latakia International Container Terminal signed a memorandum of understanding to coordinate container traffic between the Mediterranean port of Latakia and inland freight hubs.
The framework covers feasibility studies for moving containers by rail from Latakia to dry ports in Adra, Hasiya and Aleppo.
The feasibility studies are expected to take four months to complete.
Tartous port
Also this month, executives from the UAE’s DP World and Syria’s General Authority for Borders and Customs (GABC) met to discuss accelerating the development of Syria’s Port of Tartous.
Essa Kazim, chairman of DP World, met with Qutaiba Ahmed Badawi, chairman of GABC, to discuss opportunities to enhance infrastructure and logistics efficiency, ensuring the Port of Tartous is well-equipped to handle the anticipated rise in trade and cargo volume.
DP World’s plans to develop the Port of Tartous form part of a 30-year concession agreement signed in July 2025 with the Syrian government.
Under the agreement, DP World committed to invest $800m to upgrade infrastructure, expand capacity, and introduce modern cargo-handling and advanced digital systems.
DP World has said that, by fast-tracking the development of the Port of Tartous, it aims to boost its operational efficiency and capacity to handle diverse cargo types, including general cargo, containers, breakbulk and roll-on/roll-off traffic.
Rizwan Soomar, DP World’s chief executive and managing director for Central Asia, the Levant and Egypt, said: “The Port of Tartous development marks a defining moment in Syria’s journey of economic recovery and modernisation of its trade infrastructure. We are proud to contribute to this vital phase of growth.”
Located on Syria’s Mediterranean coast, the Port of Tartus is the country’s second-largest port and a key maritime gateway to trade routes across Europe, the Levant and North Africa.
Beyond the port itself, DP World is exploring other opportunities to develop infrastructure in Syria with local stakeholders. These include logistics zones, inland freight hubs and transit corridors.
US interest
US-based companies are also showing significant interest in participating in new projects in the country.
On 19 May, a delegation from the Houston-headquartered engineering company KBR travelled to Damascus to discuss road networks and infrastructure projects in Syria.
During one meeting, Syria’s transport minister outlined strategic projects currently underway, including north-south and east-west corridor projects, the Damascus-Aleppo highway and railway initiatives.
Badr said that companies were needed to update economic and technical studies for some projects.
While Syria and the US both have bold ambitions to expand Syria into a regional trade and logistics hub, the poor state of the country’s infrastructure is likely to be a key challenge.
It is likely that billions of dollars will need to be invested to rehabilitate the country so that its capacity to transport goods returns to levels seen prior to the civil war that began in March 2011.

Alec confirms Sphere Abu Dhabi contract award25 May 2026
Alec Holdings has confirmed that its subsidiary Alec Engineering & Contracting has received a letter of award for the construction contract for the $1.7bn Sphere Abu Dhabi project.
MEED had previously reported that Alec was the selected contractor and had been working on the project during the pre-construction phase. The construction is due to be completed in the third quarter of the financial year 2029.
Abu Dhabi’s Department of Culture & Tourism (DCT Abu Dhabi) and US-based Sphere Entertainment announced earlier in May that they have selected Yas Island as the location for the project.
The venue will be built on a plot between Yas Mall and SeaWorld Abu Dhabi, close to Yas Island’s theme parks and attractions. The project will be the first Sphere venue outside the US. It is expected to echo the scale of Sphere Las Vegas, with a capacity of up to 20,000 depending on configuration.
DCT and Sphere Entertainment finalised an agreement last year for the construction, development and operation of the Sphere entertainment venue in Abu Dhabi. According to the agreement, Sphere Entertainment granted DCT the exclusive rights to build and operate the Sphere Abu Dhabi entertainment venue.

Consultant wins Jeddah metro design22 May 2026

French engineering firm Egis has been appointed to undertake the preliminary design consultancy for the Jeddah Metro Blue Line project.
The project client, Jeddah Development Authority, issued the tender in early January, when MEED exclusively reported that Saudi Arabia had restarted plans to build the Jeddah Metro.
Engineering consulting firms submitted bids in April, as MEED reported.
The Blue Line will run from King Abdulaziz International airport and connect to the Haramain high-speed railway station.
The line will be 35 kilometres (km) long and will include 15 stations.
Project history
Plans for the Jeddah Metro were first publicly floated in the early 2010s and were formally packaged into a wider Jeddah public transport programme around 2013-14.
In 2014, French engineering firm Systra was appointed to complete preliminary engineering for the Jeddah Metro, as MEED reported at the time.
In the same year, US-based engineering firm Aecom was awarded a SR276m ($74m) contract to provide pre-programme management consultancy services.
Under its 18-month contract, Aecom was expected to provide staff to support preliminary planning and design work for various phases of the metro project.
This was followed by the appointment of UK-based architectural firm Foster + Partners in 2015 to design the metro stations.
The project then stalled as government spending priorities were reset and major capital programmes were reviewed following the fall in oil prices in 2015, with the metro’s scope, cost and delivery model coming under reassessment.
Early concept designs envisaged a multi-line network integrated with buses and, later, other city-wide mobility upgrades.
Route details
According to Jeddah Transport Company’s website, the scheme comprises 81 stations and 197 trains serving more than 161km. The network will have four lines:
- Orange Line: a 44.8km line running along Al-Madinah Road and Old Makkah Road, with 29 stops including one at Obhur Bridge
- Blue Line: a 35km line running from King Abdulaziz International airport to the Haramain high-speed railway station, with 15 stations
- Green Line: a 17km line running through the city centre, from the downtown area to the Haramain railway station, with nine stops
- Red Line: A 59.7km line running from King Abdullah Stadium north to Old Makkah Street through King Abdulaziz Road and King Abdullah Road, with 25 stops

Expo Riyadh tenders Saudi Arabia pavilion22 May 2026

Expo 2030 Riyadh Company (ERC), tasked with delivering the Expo 2030 Riyadh venue, has tendered a contract to build the Saudi Arabia pavilion at the site.
The tender was issued on 19 May, with a bid submission deadline of 26 August.
The pavilion is a major asset located within the KSA District on the eastern side of the Expo 2030 Riyadh masterplan, within the Loop of Nations district.
The tendering of the pavilion structure follows swift progress on the site’s infrastructure development works.
In April, ERC awarded two contracts for the next phase of infrastructure works at the site to local firm Al-Yamama Company.
The scope covers the construction of road networks and infrastructure for water, sewage, electricity, telecommunications and electric vehicle charging.
These awards followed ERC’s January award of an estimated SR1bn ($267m) contract for initial infrastructure works at the site to local firm Nesma & Partners. That scope covers about 50 kilometres of integrated infrastructure networks, including internal roads and essential utilities such as water, sewage, electrical and communication systems, and electric vehicle charging stations.
The overall infrastructure works – covering the construction of main utilities and civil works at Expo 2030 Riyadh – are split into three packages:
- Lot 1 covers the main utilities corridor
- Lot 2 includes the northern cluster of the nature corridor
- Lot 3 comprises the southern cluster of the nature corridor
The masterplan encompasses an area of 6 square kilometres, making it one of the largest sites designated for a World Expo event. Situated to the north of the Saudi capital, the site will be located near the future King Salman International airport, and will provide direct access to various landmarks within Riyadh.
The Public Investment Fund (PIF), Saudi Arabia’s sovereign wealth fund, launched ERC – a wholly owned subsidiary – in June last year to build and operate facilities for Expo 2030.
