The World Energy Council welcomes the recently announced Saudi and Middle East Green Initiatives as a valuable contribution to tackling the worldwide energy transition and a boost to its Humanising Energy vision. The multi-pronged initiatives cover a spectrum of climate and energy related plans aimed at addressing both development and environment and illustrate the need to take a ‘whole systems’ approach in tackling societal and environmental issues.
Unveiled by Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, the initiatives include a number of ambitious projects designed to reduce carbon emissions in the region by 60%. This will be achieved mainly through the use of clean hydrocarbon technologies and the planting of 50 billion trees, including 10 billion in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The Saudi Green Initiative alone aims to reduce emissions by generating half of the Kingdom s energy from renewables by 2030.
Private sector roped in to boost economy.
Saudi Arabia announced plans on Tuesday to pump investments worth $3.2 trillion into the national economy by 2030, roping in the oil-reliant kingdom’s biggest companies in a major economic diversification push.
The announcement by de facto ruler Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman underscores an effort to jumpstart the domestic economy as the top crude exporter battles high youth unemployment and a coronavirus-triggered downturn.
“The total investment injected. into the national economy is expected to reach 12 trillion riyals ($3.2 trillion) by 2030,” Prince Mohammed said in a speech carried by state television.
Twenty-four of the kingdom’s biggest companies, including energy giant Aramco and petrochemical firm SABIC, will lead the investment drive by contributing five trillion riyals ($1.3 trillion) over the next decade, he said.
