Assystem, an international engineering, digital, and project management services firm, has been contracted by ENOWA (NEOM) to conduct a series of pre-development studies for seven planned solar photovoltaic parks in the Tabuk and Duba regions.
The solar parks will assist NEOM in achieving its goal of being the world’s most advanced renewable energy hub and the first at-scale totally renewable electricity system.
Assystem’s expertise will be deployed to deliver a variety of services, including a site assessment study, preliminary park and master planning design, environmental baseline surveys, environmental and social impact assessment research, and permitting studies. Various studies, including geotechnical, geophysical, topographical, hydrological, glint and glare, corrosion assessments, energy yield calculations, and advanced park design, will be done within this scope.

The sites allotted to host the solar parks stretch over 420km2, potentially amounting to more than 20GW (accounting for around 65% of land use) in energy-generating capacity.
