REACHING NET ZERO CARBON IN UNITED ARAB
In 2023, the United Arab Emirates (UAE) led the fight against climate change as host of the 28th United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP28) in Dubai. In 2015, at COP21,
Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates are taking advantage of falling prices to load up on Chinese-made battery energy storage systems, so they can boost their renewable energy ambitions. Battery storage systems are seen as crucial to integrating solar and wind energy into electrical grids.
While building a kilowatt-hour's worth of battery energy storage in Europe or the US costs about $250, Rystad estimates in Saudi Arabia it is less than $200. Chinese battery maker BYD, whose electric vehicles are popular in the region, dominates the market in Saudi Arabia.
In terms of technology, lithium-ion batteries are in huge demand in the Middle East and Africa Advance Energy Storage Market. These batteries are also being used for the storage of energy from renewable energy sources such as solar and wind in the region.
According to the consultancy, Saudi Arabia plans to have the world's fifth-largest utility-scale battery storage capacity, after China, the US, Australia and the UK. A solar facility in Neom, Saudi Arabia, which is planning the world's fifth-biggest battery storage system © Alamy
In the Middle East and African region, the demand for batteries has increased in the Middle East as a preferred energy storage solution primarily due to technological innovation and the reduction of battery costs.
Rystad estimates the cost of installing battery energy storage is far lower than in Europe or the US, because Chinese suppliers charge less and workers are paid less. While building a kilowatt-hour's worth of battery energy storage in Europe or the US costs about $250, Rystad estimates in Saudi Arabia it is less than $200.
