1 天前· The Labour government is helping to dress up Saudi Arabia''s criminal fossil fuel expansion drive in "green" colours. As the prime minister flew to Riyadh, the Saudi capital, this month, his office told stories about hydrogen and carbon capture – technologies used by the Kingdom to pose as a friend of the "energy transition". Protest
Our approved products bear that distinction, and our new products will bear it as well. Generally, being approved in Saudi Arabia for oil and gas business provides a significant advantage for obtaining approvals in other sectors or in countries such as the UAE, Qatar or Kuwait. Standards in Saudi Arabia are generally higher, which is an advantage.

What sort of geothermal energy Saudi Arabia can or should use depends on the geology of the areas to be exploited as well as what might be economically, politically, and socially workable. Where there are very hot rocks down deep, geothermal energy uses the heat of the Earth to turn water into steam or uses geothermal water, or geothermal brine

Saudi Arabia''s energy profile. It gives an overview of the country''s primary and secondary energy mix, with a focus on the 2018 key energy data indicators. The first section details the Kingdom''s oil and gas reserves, production and consumption and provides data on Saudi Arabia''s renewable energy potential. The second section focuses on
Energy in Saudi Arabia involves petroleum and natural gas production, consumption, and exports, and electricity production. Saudi Arabia is the world's leading oil producer and exporter. Saudi Arabia's economy is petroleum-based; oil accounts for 90% of the country's exports and nearly 75% of government revenue.
The kingdom aims to increase its electricity generation capacity from 83 gigawatts (GW) in 2023 to 110 GW by 2028, supported by a $293 billion investment in both conventional power and renewable energy projects. At the heart of this strategy is Saudi Arabia's goal to generate 50% of its electricity from renewable sources by 2030.
In January 2021, Saudi Arabia announced its intent to generate 50% of its electricity from renewables by 2030, with the other half coming from natural gas-fired power gen-eration (Paraskova, 2021). The total renewable energy installed capacity in Saudi Arabia has increased from 3 MW in 2011 to 413 MW in 2020 (Figure 3).

One of the first energy eficiency initiatives in the KSA is the launch of the National Energy Eficiency Program in 2003 as a three-year program to improve the man-agement and eficiency of electricity generation and consumption in the kingdom.
Consequently, there is an urgent need to develop energy conservation policies for sustainable development. Electricity generation is 40% from Oil 52% from Natural Gas and 8% from steam. Generation capacity is approximately 55 GW. A looming energy shortage requires Saudi Arabia to increase its capacity.
