Overview: Jubail Water and Power Plant is one of Saudi Arabia’s largest gas‑fired cogeneration facilities, supplying electricity and desalinated water to the Eastern Province, a region at the heart of the Kingdom’s industrial activity. Operating under a long‑term Power and Water Purchase Agreement, the plant supports both industrial and municipal demand through reliable, baseload utility supply.
The facility combines combined‑cycle gas turbine (CCGT) power generation with thermal desalination, enabling integrated and efficient production of power and water at scale. Commissioned in 2009, JWAP remains a cornerstone asset within Saudi Arabia’s cogeneration fleet, contributing to long‑term energy and water security while supporting the operational needs of major industrial consumers in Jubail.
