The main technologies Saudi Arabia employs are photovoltaic and concentrated solar power. Of these two, photovoltaic (PV) systems are the most commonly applied throughout Saudi Arabia. They produce clean electricity by converting solar energy through semiconductor materials.Between different PV systems, research shows that sun-tracking systems such as the 1-axis tracking system and the 2-axis tracking system produce the greatest amount of energy compared to fixed systems. They increased electricity production by 28–33%.Sun tracking systems work by varying the angles of solar panels throughout the day based on the Sun's movement across the sky to ensure they are consistently capturing the most solar energy possible.The 2-axis tracking system is slightly more efficient than the 1-axis, but the difference is considered negligible. Saudi Arabia has also explored concentrated solar power (CSP) due to its potential to store the thermal energy, which can then be accessed later when there is greater demand or shortage.Among the CSP systems, the country is focusing on parabolic trough, solar tower, linear Fresnel, and parabolic dish.All of these are considered viable options due to their high yield, retention capabilities, and most importantly, Saudi Arabia's Direct Normal Irradiance (DNI).DNI is the measure of solar radiation per unit of land that is orthogonal (at right angles) to the direction of the sunlight.Thus, the higher this value, the more effective the CSP system. However, the initial expenses of se.
