In this session, we will seek to ascertain if the Saudi market can be home to ambitious green hydrogen project or innovative hybrid storage configurations. We will also discuss if the CSP (concentrated solar power) technology has the potential to challenge the primacy of PV or if it may be used in complementarity.

Talking points:

•  Competition between green and grey/blue hydrogen
• Costs of hydrogen
• Revival of CPS and competition or complementarity with PV
• Large-scale and small-scale batteries; feasibility, prices, and technology
• Neom 
• Hybridizing PV with HVAC
