Pre-development of solar power plants in Saudi Arabia

To complete the pre-development studies, Assystem carried out several steps to provide a complete and detailed study such as: ​

• Preliminary site assessment ​
• Preliminary design (Master Plan)​
• Environmental and Social Impact Assessment (ESIA)​
• Permitting, authorizations and stakeholder non-objection​
• Geotechnical assessment​ and preliminary geotechnical study​
• Interpretative geotechnical reporting including recommendation for the most suitable foundation design(s) for the park, and if required any soil improvement requirements and any other geotechnical recommendations
• Hydrological assessment ​
• Topographical survey
• Hydrological study
• Recommendation for the stormwater design​
• Corrosion assessment...

The client is benefiting from the expertise of a team of experts who are studying, providing and implementing the detailed data for the future stages of this project. Indeed, the reports and studies below illustrate Assystem's comprehensive approach to the planning, design and implementation of one of the world's largest solar pre-development projects:

• Basic and advance design of solar parks and medium voltage, high voltage design works
• Environmental and Social Impact Assessment Studies (ESIA) for all sites – approval by National Center for Environmental Compliance (NCEC)
• Stakeholder engagement Plan preparation
• High resolution topographical surveys
• CAPEX/OPEX estimates and bankable feasibility report
• Hydrological analysis and mitigation methods
• Corrosion studies
• 3D-video creation
• Geo-engineering studies
