Saudi Arabia launched the sixth round of its renewables program on 24 September, as it seeks to keep momentum building in the sector. The Saudi Power Procurement Company (SPPC) issued a request for qualification (RFQ) for five projects (four solar PV, one wind) with combined capacity of 4.5GW (see table 1), taking the total capacity of operational, under-development and out-to-tender plants up to 28.2GW.
