HEFEI, China, Dec. 18, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia has officially completed grid connection of its landmark energy storage system (ESS) project with the nameplate capacity of 7.8GWh. Once fully energized, it will become the world's largest operational battery energy storage system (BESS), marking a major milestone in the advancement of renewable energy in the Middle East.
The project spans three sites located in the southwestern regions of KSA, Najran, Khamis Mushait, and Madaya. Sungrow, the equipment provider, played a pivotal role by completing the manufacturing of over 1,500 PowerTitan 2.0 systems in just 58 days and delivering the entire project within a very challenging timeline.
The PowerTitan 2.0 system features an all-in-one AC-DC block design, integrating embedded power conversion systems (PCS), pre-assembled battery container, medium voltage transformers and RMU, and comprehensive factory testing. This streamlined configuration significantly reduces onsite installation time. Additionally, Sungrow has deployed a dedicated local service team of professionals based in Saudi Arabia to support installation, commissioning, and grid connection.
This 7.8 GWh project marks the beginning of large-scale energy storage deployment in the Middle East. The project's annual charging and discharging capacity is expected to reach 2.2 billion kWh, which can meet the annual electricity needs of 400,000 households in Saudi Arabia.
The project contributes significantly to Saudi Arabia's Vision 2030 and supports the global transition toward clean and sustainable energy.

7.8 GWh Saudi Arabia ESS Project Officially Connected to the Grid
PARIS, April 2, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- The Korea Carbon Industry Promotion Agency (Kcarbon), in collaboration with Gyeongsangbuk-do, successfully concluded its participation in JEC World 2026, the world's largest composites exhibition, held from March 10 to 12 in Paris, France. Through the operation of the Korea Pavilion, the agency strengthened the global presence of Korea's carbon materials and advanced application technologies.
The Korea Pavilion featured 12 leading small and medium-sized enterprises specializing in carbon materials and components. The exhibition showcased a wide range of high-value materials, including carbon fiber composites, recycled carbon fiber, carbon nanotubes, and graphene, as well as their applications in thermal management products, electric aircraft batteries, wind turbine blade components, and water treatment systems.
Participating companies—Neomond, Daesung Metal, Daeshin Techgen, VSPACE, Shinsung Materials, CTCM, FRT Robotics, O2NB, Il Sung Composites, Cartech H, and Taerim Industry—demonstrated capabilities spanning from raw materials to finished products for aerospace, medical devices, and environmental systems. Leveraging differentiated manufacturing technologies and stable production capabilities, the companies engaged in extensive business discussions with buyers from Europe, the Americas, and the Middle East, achieving tangible outcomes.
Notably, Daeshin Techgen and O2NB secured export contracts totaling $450,000 with international buyers. Daeshin Techgen signed supply agreements with U.S.-based PBS International and N-Water, valued at $200,000 for electromagnetic shielding composites and $100,000 for CNT nanofilters. O2NB concluded a $150,000 contract with Kayo Partners in Gabon for water purification systems, marking a new entry into the African market.
Other participating companies also leveraged the exhibition to explore global opportunities. VSPACE presented solutions for urban air mobility (UAM), FRT Robotics showcased robotic exoskeleton technologies, and Cartech H introduced innovations in recycled carbon fiber technologies, all aiming to expand partnerships in European and global markets.
During the exhibition, the agency operated a dedicated B2B meeting zone in cooperation with the Korea Carbon and Nano Industry Association
(KCANIA) and the World Federation of Overseas Korean Economic And Trade Associations(OKTA). The initiative provided buyer matching, interpretation support for technical discussions, and on-site assistance for exhibitors, contributing to meaningful business outcomes.
Park Gyu-soon, Acting President of the Korea Carbon Industry Promotion Agency, stated, "JEC World 2026 provided an excellent opportunity to present the innovative technologies of Korean carbon companies to the global market.
