HD Hyundai Electric has been signing supply contracts for power equipment related to new city development every month in Saudi Arabia, from the Neom City construction project in September to the recent Diriyah development project.


It is expected that as the Saudi government’s urban development projects accelerate based on the ‘Vision 2030’ policy, the demand for power equipment necessary for power grid construction will also increase.



An official from HD Hyundai Electric stated, “We have been consecutively winning large-scale orders recently as our products’ excellent quality and supply capabilities have been recognized by customers. With power grid investments in Saudi Arabia expected to continue next year, we plan to secure orders for upcoming projects as well, thereby establishing a stronger position in the market.”
