This 160MW solar system project in Oman uses SandShield technology and advanced engineering services, delivering efficient power engineering solutions with long-term sustainability.
Case Details
SAND RESISTANCE TECHNOLOGY
Component surface coated with proprietary patent "SandShield" self-cleaning coating, developed through advanced engineering consulting services and supported by professional engineering services. This innovation reflects the expertise of a solar engineering company applying custom engineering solutions for desert environments.
PERFORMANCE DATA
The actual first-year electricity generation in 2023 was 140 million kilowatt-hours, exceeding the feasibility study forecast by 4.7%. This achievement demonstrates the value of integrated project solutions and quality engineering services in solar system project development.
EFFECTIVE DUST REDUCTION
Dust adhesion reduced by 70%, ensuring long-term power engineering efficiency and reliable energy output.
Project Details and Achievements
- Expansion Value: The original IBRI power station capacity was 100MW, and after expansion, the total capacity reached 160MW, becoming a core power source in the central Omani power grid, meeting the annual electricity needs of 120,000 households. This large-scale solar system project showcases the role of integrated engineering and project management services in boosting national energy security.
- Operation and Maintenance Optimization: During the sandstorm high season (June to September each year), the operation and maintenance costs decreased by 55%, reducing the frequency of manual cleaning (from twice a week to once a month). Coating weather resistance tests show that performance decay does not exceed 5% within 5 years, ensuring long-term stable operation. Such results highlight the importance of outsourced engineering services, construction project management solutions, and continuous service engineering.
- Low-carbon Contribution: The project reduces carbon dioxide emissions by about 86,000 tons annually, helping Oman achieve the goal of 10% renewable energy by 2030. It reflects the contribution of an engineering services company delivering project development services and power engineering solutions aligned with real estate development planning and sustainability targets.
With advanced construction project management services, electrical engineering expertise, and architectural engineering integration, this project is not only a benchmark in solar engineering but also a model for custom engineering solutions and integrated project solutions that connect technology, environment, and community development.
