GameChange Solar Chosen for 1.2 GW Saudi Arabia solar plant Project
In a significant development for the Middle East’s renewable energy sector, GameChange Solar, a leading global supplier of solar tracking solutions, has announced it will supply its advanced tracker systems for the monumental 1.2 GW Bisha Solar PV Independent Power Plant in Saudi Arabia. This contract marks a major milestone for both the company and the Kingdom’s ambitious clean energy goals.
The utility-scale project, located in Bisha, will be equipped with GameChange Solar’s state-of-the-art Genius Trackerâ„¢ systems. These trackers are engineered to maximize energy generation by dynamically orienting solar panels to follow the sun’s path throughout the day. This technology is crucial for optimizing the performance and efficiency of large-scale solar installations, particularly in regions with high solar irradiance like Saudi Arabia.
While the project is widely cited as a 1.2 GW plant, some reports also list its capacity at 1,290 MWp, a distinction that often reflects the difference between AC (alternating current) and DC (direct current) power ratings. Regardless of the specific metric, the Bisha facility represents a massive leap forward in solar power generation for the region.
GameChange Solar’s selection for this project underscores its reputation for delivering bankable, high-quality technology designed for rapid installation and long-term durability. The company’s Genius Tracker is built to withstand challenging environmental conditions while ensuring stable and reliable energy production. With a global portfolio exceeding 53 GW, GameChange Solar brings extensive experience to this landmark Saudi Arabian project.
This collaboration is a key component of Saudi Arabia’s broader strategy to diversify its energy mix and increase its renewable energy capacity. The Bisha Solar PV Plant will contribute substantially to the nation’s clean energy targets, reducing carbon emissions and paving the way for a more sustainable energy future.
As construction and development move forward, the Bisha project will stand as a testament to international collaboration and technological innovation in the pursuit of a cleaner planet.
