  • Saudi Arabia: Thursday, June 25 - 2009 at 09:26

Japan's fifth-biggest oil refiner Showa Shell Sekiyu K.K. has announced it has agreed with state-run oil firm Saudi Aramco to study the possibility of a solar power business in the kingdom, KUNA has reported. The two companies intend to choose several sites in Saudi Arabia for constructing power plants capable of generating 1,000kw to 2,000kw. Once the project gets on track, Showa Shell and Saudi Aramco plan to establish a joint venture around 2012 for similar operations in emerging countries in the Middle East, Southeast Asia, Africa, Latin America, and elsewhere.
