Red Sea hosts world's largest facility system
The Red Sea Gateway Project has achieved commercial operation success, becoming the first fully integrated system outside the national electricity grid that relies entirely on renewable energy. It serves hotels, the airport, and community facilities by using a 340 MW solar power plant and a 1,227 MWh battery system—the largest of its kind globally—to provide sustainable energy throughout the day. The project contributes approximately 760,000 MWh of electricity annually and prevents the emission of around 600,000 tons of carbon dioxide each year. The system also includes water desalination and waste treatment technologies, along with district cooling systems, supporting Saudi Arabia's sustainable development goals and Vision 2030. It highlights the pivotal role of sustainable infrastructure in supporting an integrated eco-friendly tourism model.
