Bidders will have time until August 26 to pre-qualify for the tender. The two projects are part of the country’s strategy to install around 2 GW of solar power by 2024. Two 500 MW solar projects had been previously tendered by the OPWP. One project will be located in Ibri, around 300 km west from Muscat, while the second project is planned for an unspecified location.
