Saudi Arabia: Entirely Powered by Renewable Energy

Saudi Arabia plans to fully depend on renewable and low carbon forms of energy as power sources. Saudi Arabia’s energy use is almost entirely from fossil fuels at present, with about two-thirds coming from oil and the remainder from gas. However, Prince Turki Al Faisal Al Saud, founder of the King Faisal Foundation insisted that Saudi was moving ahead with investment in renewable and other alternatives to fossil fuels and that it could use his country’s vast oil reserves for other goods, such as plastics and polymers.
