Insights into Saudi Electricity's Energy Renewability
In 2023, Saudi Electricity consumed a total of 2.11 billion Gigajoules of energy across its operations. Of this total, 0% was sourced from renewable energy, either derived from natural resources like biofuels, biomass, or biogas, or generated using renewable technologies such as solar or wind power. The remaining 100% was classified as non-renewable energy, coming from fossil-based fuels such as coal, natural gas, or crude oil, or from non-renewable generation technologies like nuclear power.
Saudi Electricity's Energy Renewability Rate
How much of Saudi Electricity's energy consumed is renewable?
In 2023, Saudi Electricity consumed a total of 2.11 billion Gigajoules of energy, of which 0% was derived from renewable sources, including biofuels, biomass, biogas, solar, and wind power.
This low level of renewable energy use highlights a heavy reliance on fossil fuels or other non-renewable sources, suggesting that Saudi Electricity has considerable room to improve its energy sustainability strategy.
Are Saudi Electricity's energy practices becoming more sustainable?
Since 2020, Saudi Electricity's total energy consumption increased by 16.46%, including a 6.16% increase in 2023, reflecting a sustained rise in overall energy demand.
Over the same period, the share of renewable energy increased by 10.95%, but declined by 1.66% in 2023, suggesting recent volatility or sourcing constraints.
Overall, Saudi Electricity’s energy trends reveal a complex picture, with variations in total consumption and renewable sourcing. A closer examination of operational drivers and sourcing strategies is needed to fully assess the company’s environmental impact.

Insights into Saudi Electricity's Energy Inflows & Self-Sufficiency
In 2023, Saudi Electricity reported total energy inflows of 1.4 billion Gigajoules, which corresponds to the company's full energy needs, including energy consumed, redistributed, sold, or stored. This energy inflow was composed of 616.55 million Gigajoules purchased from external suppliers and 788.34 million Gigajoules generated through internal production. This corresponds to a production share of 56.11%, reflecting a 4,388.61% percentage point decrease from the previous year (2022) and a 4,388.61% percentage point decrease since 2020.
The declining share of internally produced energy, both over the past year and compared to earlier years, suggests growing reliance on purchased energy. This trend may reflect cost-optimization decisions, external sourcing preferences, or a deprioritization of self-generation efforts.
