Project Overview

Hybrid solar generation built for grid resilience.

Al-Badiya Solar Power Plant is one of the region's pioneering hybrid renewable energy installations, integrating utility-scale photovoltaic generation with grid-connected battery storage.

The project combines high-efficiency solar power generation with advanced storage capabilities to help smooth intermittency, support ramp-rate control, avoid curtailment, and provide reliable clean energy dispatchability.

Al Badiya is the first company to own a utility-scale solar power plant combined with energy-storage systems in the Middle East and Africa region.
