Industry, cross-sector
Saudi Arabia’s energy–industry system
Connects the nine-refinery 2025 Saudi baseline to chemical developments and the power sector, and holds three distinctions throughout: physical refinery capacity against ownership-weighted capacity, a replacement process unit against a net increase in national supply, and announced renewable and battery projects against electricity available hour by hour. It carries forward the 70 GW renewable and 44.3 GWh battery project coverage from the earlier Saudi registers, across development stages. Refinery capacities refer to 2025 and project stages keep their own disclosure dates; figures are as compiled on 20 September 2026.

What the report covers
Saudi Arabia’s industrial energy story needs more than a list of projects.
Our new Renewable Vision briefing maps the nine-refinery 2025 baseline and connects it to chemical developments and the power sector.
Three distinctions matter:
• Physical refinery capacity and ownership-weighted capacity answer different questions.
• A replacement process unit is not automatically a net increase in national supply.
• Announced renewable and battery projects cannot be treated as available hourly electricity.
The report includes primary-source links, dated project stages and the definitions behind each headline. It preserves the 70 GW renewable and 44.3 GWh battery project-coverage figures from our earlier Saudi registers, across development stages.
Which industrial demand should future power-system planning capture more explicitly: refining, chemicals, hydrogen or cooling?
