Tarshid Launches Solar Panel Project at Institute of Public Administration in Riyadh
The National Energy Services Company (Tarshid), in collaboration with the Institute of Public Administration in Riyadh, has launched a major solar panel installation initiative. This project involves equipping the institute’s buildings and facilities with rooftop solar systems to enhance energy efficiency and reduce electricity consumption. The initiative is designed to generate clean, renewable energy on-site, aligning with international sustainability standards and best practices.
Technical Assessment
According to Waled Abdullah Al-Ghreri, Board Member and CEO of Tarshid, the project began with in-depth field surveys and technical evaluations to assess energy performance across the institute. The findings guided the implementation of rooftop solar systems as a strategic solution for energy optimization. Moreover, the total installed capacity of these systems is 682 kilowatts, expected to generate around one million kilowatt-hours annually for internal consumption.
Tarshid, Energy Impact
The project is set to reduce the institute’s annual electricity consumption from 25.5 million kWh to 24.4 million kWh. Additionally, this reduction translates into environmental benefits equivalent to saving over 1,700 barrels of oil and avoiding about 600 metric tons of carbon emissions per year. These savings are comparable to planting more than 10,000 tree seedlings annually.
National Sustainability Goals
Through this initiative, Tarshid reinforces its commitment to supporting Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030 and the Kingdom’s broader sustainability objectives. The project not only contributes to cleaner energy production but also plays a key role in national efforts to achieve long-term energy savings and reduce carbon emissions.
