ELSEWEDY ELECTRIC Power Systems Projects will be executing six high-voltage power substations across multiple regions in Saudi Arabia, with voltage levels ranging between 110 and 115 kilovolts, as part of efforts to strengthen the Kingdom’s power transmission network.
The projects by ELSEWEDY ELECTRIC are being carried out in collaboration with Saudi Electricity Company and National Grid Company, alongside global electrical equipment manufacturers Hitachi Energy and Siemens Energy.
The substations are expected to enhance the reliability and efficiency of electricity networks while supporting uninterrupted power supply amid rising energy demand across the Kingdom.
ELSEWEDY ELECTRIC expands Saudi grid to key regions
The projects span key regions, including the Western Region with the Jawharat Al Arous and Naqua substations, the Riyadh substation, and the Eastern Region in Dammam, covering the Al-Nasriyah, Al-Khaleej-2, and Al-Fayhaa substations. The geographic spread is aimed at supporting growing consumption and strengthening grid coverage.
The developments underscore the role of ELSEWEDY ELECTRIC Power Systems Projects in expanding and modernizing Saudi Arabia’s national grid infrastructure, supported by integrated project execution and international technical partnerships.
The company is delivering the projects under a turnkey model, covering engineering design, procurement, civil and electromechanical works, grid connection, as well as testing and commissioning.
The substations utilise advanced technologies, including gas-insulated switchgear (GIS) and high-capacity power transformers, to ensure operational efficiency and reliability.
