In a traditional electrical grid system, the network operator will typically only know the power failure issues when consumer call them and file a complaint. But in case of a smart grid system, if supply fails and any fault appears then the service provider will automatically respond to the affected area.

In 2011, The United States and Saudi Arabia jointly set up a solar-research station in Al-Uyaynah village. The village, located about 30 miles northwest of Riyadh, had no electric supply at the time. The station is operated by the King Abdulaziz City for Science and Technology. The agency established an experimental assembly line at the site to manufacture solar panels. The equip. Cutting-edge research into new technologies for photovoltaic cells, a favorable climate and strong collaborations with industry are key factors in Saudi Arabia’s development of solar power. [pdf]
Leveraging its abundant sunshine and vast desert areas, Saudi Arabia is now pivoting to solar energy, aligning with its Vision 2030 plan to diversify its economy and ensure sustainable growth by reducing oil dependency and investing in renewable energy.
The average energy from the sunlight falling on Saudi Arabia is 2200 thermal kWh/m 2 ( Alawaji, 2001 ), and it is therefore worthwhile to attempt to generate clean energy in the country via direct sunlight through PV cells. Applications of solar energy in Saudi Arabia have been growing since 1960.
The Lunch of Saudi Solar Energy Program Sakaka, Al Shuaibah, and Sudair Solar Energy Projects have been completed By 2030, the gaol is 40GW PV solar and 2.7GW (CSP) concentrated solar power capacity
This move towards solar energy in Saudi Arabia is driven by a desire to reduce oil dependency, enhance economic stability amidst oil price fluctuations, and address environmental concerns by cutting carbon emissions, as highlighted by the Office of Energy Efficiency & Renewable Energy.
Key locations include Sakaka in Al Jouf Province, Al Shuaibah in Makkah Province, and Sudair in Riyadh Province, among others. These projects capitalize on Saudi Arabia's geographical position and favorable weather conditions to generate solar power. Solar energy is set to expand nationwide.
KAUST’s Stefaan De Wolf believes there is a great opportunity for cheap and abundant photovoltaics and other renewable sources of energy, such as wind, to electrify the country’s energy sector. “There are huge opportunities for Saudi Arabia, thanks to its abundant solar irradiance,” he says.
