Fuhaid bin Fahd al-Sharif, head of Saudi Arabia's giant power and water desalination project, Ras Azzour, has said that the kingdom expects the project's cost to be 20%-25% below initial estimates as the price of materials has fallen and the project description has changed, Reuters has reported. The power and water plant, which was originally expected to cost $6bn to build, will produce 2,400 megawatts of electricity.
