The Rabigh 1 Expansion Project is a large-scale Combined Cycle Gas Turbine (CCGT) power plant with readiness to integrate a carbon capture unit, aligning with the Kingdom's long-term sustainability and emissions reduction goals.
Located in the Western Province of Saudi Arabia, the project will have a total production capacity of 1,179MW, contributing substantially to meeting growing electricity demand in the region.
The project scope includes the development, financing, construction, ownership, and operation of the gas-fired combined cycle power plant, said the statement from SEC.

According to Saudi Electricity Company, the project will be implemented under a 25-year agreement starting from the commercial operation date. The financial impact of the operation is expected to be reflected from Q2 2027 onwards, it added.
