Oman Power and Water Procurement Company (OPWP) earlier this week invited the companies and consortia that were pre-qualified in the previous phase of the competition to submit proposals. Last year, the Oman Power and Water and Procurement Company (OPWP) — the country’s sole buyer of electricity — unveiled its renewable energy development plan which envisions the procurement of 3,050 megawatts (MW) of renewables-based capacity by 2025. The study has been completed in 2013.The study has concluded with some recommendations for implementing the following measures:The study has focused on the residential buildings; and concluded the possibility to produce 450 MW in Muscat governorate only and possibility to produce 1.4 GW if the technology been implemented in all governorates, which equals to 1.4 TWh in the year. Drinking water services are critical to the development of Oman. Four main themes were selected for the progarm as following: As mentioned in chart 1 below, the study has estimated that local sectors can participate by 35% of the total investment in this project.The study has identified the 15 most promising sites for wind energy production in Oman, where wind reaches around 11 m/s in those sites. Willayat of Sadah, Shlim, Duqom and Ja’alan bani bu Ali have been selected for this purpose.Making Diam’s unremitting efforts in support of renewable energy projects, the study regarding the development of wind energy in the province of Dhofar, in collaboration with an experienced consultant well versed in the field of energy studies the initial assessment and feasibility study has been completed.The preliminary study ruled enforceability of the wind power plant project with a capacity of 50 MW technically, where the focus has been on several sites where the wind speeds range 7.7 - 7.3 m / s (about 15 knots).

Pilot projects would help demonstrate technical and economic performance of technologies under local conditions, and facilitate the transfer of knowledge and knowhow to relevant institutions in Oman. : +968 24597510. Sultanate of Oman Tel. In coordination with international consultant, Authority for Electricity Regulation has supervised a comprehensive study to measure the level of renewable energy in Oman.

Also, the study has presented the challenges of implemented this technologies such as high cost, high subsidy requirements, administrative and technical challenges and lack of local experience in this field. They were placed on your computer when you launched this website. Among those favorable sites, It is worth mentioning that phase two of the project aims to install the wind masts in four locations for data collection purpose. Wind turbines spin at a windpark on October 17, 2012 near Neubrandenburg, Germany. Nine leading energy project developer/developer consortiums are in the race for the ‘Manah Solar I and ‘Manah Solar II IPPsImage used for illustrative purpose. The Amin Solar PV project is supported by the Japanese-Omani consortium and designed by Marubeni Corporation, Oman Gas Company S.A.O.C., Bahwan Renewable Energy Company LLC and Nebras Power. Contact: P. O. Amin Renewable Energy Co, a consoritum of Marubeni, Oman Gas, Bahwan and Nebras is putting up a 125 MWp Solar IPP, the first in Oman.
