16 K A CARE Mandate 16

17 Established by Royal Order April 17, 2010, the Mission is to be: The driving force for making atomic and renewable energy an integral part of a national sustainable energy mix, creating and leveraging the competitive advantages of relevant technologies for the social and economic development of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia 17

18 Key K.A.CARE Objectives CREATE a sustainable economic sector for Saudi Arabia anchored by local alternative energy demand market CONTRIBUTE to job creation, GDP growth, environmental footprint reduction and sustainable development MAINTAIN highest levels of safety, security and transparency 18

19 Policies & Strategies Execution Regulatory Investment & Business R&D & Innovation Internation al Relations Human Capacity Mandate K.A.CARE City 19

20 Execution of K.A.CARE Mandate SUGGEST alternative energy mix Sustainable and efficient energy future for KSA DEVELOP & LEAD execution plans PLAN for and BUILD physical city 20

21 Selecting the Optimum Energy Mix 21

22 Parameters Affecting Energy Mix Development Value chain development Economics of hydrocarbons saved Energy Mix Electricity and desalination demand patterns Human capacity development Regulatory and physical infrastructure requirements Technology choices 22

23 Criteria for Solar Energy Economic Sector Sustainable Development Incentivize Manufacturing and Services Industry, Coupled with Incentivizing R&D, Innovation, and Human Capacity Development Creating Industry Pull through Incentivize production of Solar Kwh, both for Utility Scale and Distributed Applications Target Long Term Developmental Goals by Reducing Significantly KSA s Greenhouse Gases Emissions in Power Generation as well as in Manufacturing 23

27 Capacity Identification Using Technology Load Matching Approach Start with known hydrocarbon capacity in target year X: (Existing + Committed Retiring) Solar PV Solar CSP Nuclear + Wind + Waste-to-Energy + Geothermal Load Following Base Load Required Additional Capacity 27

28 Technology Installed Capacity Estimation 2032 Start with known hydrocarbon capacity in year 2032: 60.5 GW 16 GW 25 GW 17 GW 9 GW 3 GW 1 GW Load Following Base Load = 60.5 GW Source: ECRA, SEC, Team Analysis 28

29 Proposed Energy Mix Solar PV Solar CSP Hydrocarbons Nuclear + Geothermal + Waste-to-Energy 16 GW 25 GW 21 GW 29

30 Load-Specific Technology Component of the Proposed Energy Mix by 2032 PV will meet total day time demand year round NUCLEAR + GEOTHERMAL + WASTE-TO- ENERGY will meet base-load demand up to night time demand during winter CSP with storage will meet maximum demand difference between PV and base-load technologies HYDROCARBONS will meet the rest of the demand 30

31 Solar Value Chain Development 31

32 Global Solar PV Energy Trends Electricity cost of ~10 c$/kwh in 2020 ~7 c$/kwh in GW installed in 2020 (10x) Solar electricity costs - utility scale PV (c$/kwh) Global installed capacity (GWp) 32
