The Saudi Electricity Company (SEC) has extended its deadline to June 30 for bids to build an integrated solar and combined-cycle (ISCC) power plant at the Waad Al-Shamal industrial city development, located in northern Saudi Arabia, Middle East Economic Digest (MEED) reported, citing industry sources.

 

The deadline, originally set for April 5, has been extended several times to give contractors more time to work on bids due to the complexity of the project.

 

Last October, SEC began receiving technical bids for the engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) contract to build the plant at Saudi Arabian Mining Co.’s (Maaden) Waad Al-Shamal phosphate mining development. However, a delay in the receipt of gas allocations for the plant’s feedstock pushed back the commercial bid deadline.

 

The 1,050 megawatt (MW) hybrid plant will supply power to the $7 billion industrial development city.
