The world’s largest green hydrogen project in Saudi Arabia’s NEOM has formally entered the construction stage.

In a statement, ACWA Power said that its affiliate NEOM Green Hydrogen Co. issued a full award notice to proceed with the engineering, procurement and construction, which has been approved.

ACWA Power further pointed out that its SR1.12 billion ($300 million) contribution in the limited notice to proceed will become part of its equity contribution to the project.

The statement added that all project agreements have been signed, and partners have agreed to manage certain execution risks related to the EPC contract.

The green hydrogen facility will be based at Oxagon within the Saudi futuristic city NEOM and is due for completion by the end of 2026.

Several Saudi companies, including ACWA Power and a subsidiary of oil giant Aramco, signed power purchase agreements on Sunday for clean energy projects with a capacity of 15 gigawatts and investments worth around $8.3 billion, the Saudi state news agency (SPA) said.

ACWA Power signed seven agreements as the main developer, in partnership with the Water and Electricity Holding Co (Badeel), owned by the Saudi Public Investment Fund (PIF), and Aramco Power, a unit of Aramco, according to SPA.

The projects include five photovoltaic solar plants in the cities of Aseer, Madinah, Makkah and Riyadh, and two wind power projects in Riyadh.

Saudi Arabia is aiming to build up to 130 gigawatts of renewable capacity by 2030, it said last year.
