Global safety science organization UL and Saudi-based GCC Electrical Testing Laboratories (GCC Labs) inaugurated yesterday their first joint venture lab in Dammam.

 

The new laboratory, Gulf Renewables Lab, will aim to strengthen awareness, capabilities and certification within the renewable energy segment in Saudi Arabia and across the region.

 

Spanning across 7,000 square meters, the lab is located in Dammam's third industrial city and will provide more than 50 standardized tests of renewable energy systems according to international, GCC and Saudi specifications.

 

“The lab will contribute significantly towards localizing manufacturing and services and promoting alternative energy applications suitable for the climatic conditions in the GCC,” Hamid Syed, vice president and general manager in the Middle East for UL, said.

 

With the opening of the laboratory, UL and GCC Labs both aim to provide renewable energy related services, testing and updating the certification requirements in the MENA region.
