Nama Power and Water Procurement and O-Green have signed the award of the Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) for the Continuous Renewable Energy Project in the wilayats of Mahout and Duqm, marking a major step in Oman’s transition toward integrated clean-energy systems.
The project combines solar, wind and battery energy storage systems with a total installed generation capacity of 2.7 gigawatts. It is designed to provide stable and reliable electricity supply around the clock and is considered one of the world’s largest hybrid continuous renewable energy projects.
The signing ceremony was held under the auspices of Sultan Salim Al Habsi, Minister of Finance. The award letter was signed by Ahmed Salim Al Abri, Chief Executive Officer of Nama Power and Water Procurement, and Mustafa Mohammed Al Hinai, Chief Executive Officer of O-Green.
The project is expected to deliver nearly 770 megawatts of firm supply capacity through the integration of solar photovoltaic generation, wind power and battery energy storage systems. The development is aimed at supporting Oman’s carbon-emission reduction goals under Oman Vision 2040 and enabling wider integration of renewable energy into the national grid.
The project also supports the growth of energy-intensive industries, including data centres, advanced computing, advanced manufacturing and green fuels, while strengthening Oman’s position as a regional hub for integrated renewable energy systems.
By combining renewable energy resources with advanced storage technologies, the project is expected to address intermittency challenges associated with solar and wind power and deliver stable, dispatchable clean energy.
Mustafa Mohammed Al Hinai CEO – O-Green
“We are pleased to sign the award of this agreement, which represents an important milestone in accelerating the implementation of continuous renewable energy projects in the Sultanate of Oman, in line with the objectives of Oman Vision 2040, which is accorded the Royal care of His Majesty Sultan Haitham bin Tarik. This project embodies national efforts to optimize the use of Oman’s abundant renewable energy resources and transform them into practical projects that support a low-carbon economy. The agreement also reflects growing confidence in O-Green’s ability to develop integrated clean-energy solutions that combine solar power, wind power and battery energy storage systems.”
Ahmed Salim Al Abri, Chief Executive Officer of Nama Power and Water Procurement, said that, “The Continuous Renewable Energy Project represents an important step in the transformation journey of Oman’s energy sector. The award of the project to a local developer also presents an integrated model that combines solar power, wind power and battery energy storage technologies to provide stable and renewable electricity supply around the clock.”
Al Abri added that, “The project will contribute to enhancing the capacity of the electricity grid to accommodate more clean-energy sources, while supporting Oman’s sustainability and carbon-neutrality targets. Nama Power and Water Procurement will continue its role in enabling reliable and economically efficient power and water procurement solutions that meet the Sultanate of Oman’s growing demand.”
