The installed capacity of solar power generation in Qatar was recorded as 5.1MW, as of 2020, which is far from the required targets to have a considerable share of renewables in the energy mix. Thus umpteen solar PV projects are lined up to boost the capacity in the nation.
The Minister of State for Energy Affairs, the president and CEO of QatarEnergy Saad Sherida Al-Kaabi stated: “I am pleased to announce that, in line with our sustainability strategy, we will more than double our solar power production capacity to about 4,000 megawatts by 2030 through the world-scale, 2,000-megawatt Dukhan solar power plant.”
With the Dukhan plant’s completion, QatarEnergy’s solar power projects within Qatar will have a total capacity of 4GW by 2030, representing almost 30% of the nation’s total electrical power production capacity.

Qatar Energy launched a new Sustainability Strategy in January 2021 that establishes a number of targets in alignment with the goals of the Paris Agreement and sets in motion a plan to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 25% by 2030.
Harnessing solar power has become an important objective for Qatar in recent years. By 2030, Qatar has set the goal of attaining 20% of its energy from solar power. The country is well-positioned to capitalize on photovoltaic systems, as it has a global horizontal irradiance value of approximately 2,140 kWh per square meter annually.
The project will elevate Qatar’s photovoltaic (PV) solar power production capacity to 4GW. Dukhan solar power plant, along with the existing Al-Kharsaah solar power plant, was inaugurated in 2022 with an 800MW capacity. Two further upcoming projects in the Ras Laffan and Mesaieed industrial cities will bolster QatarEnergy’s solar power portfolio.
