GS Inima has executed a Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) for the Barka 5 Photovoltaic (PV) Plant in Oman.

GS Inima initiated the development of the 6.5 MWp PV Plant in 2022, starting from the ground up. Following extensive planning, the company is now set to begin construction, targeting operational status in early 2026. The project is expected to generate significant energy savings for the Barka 5 desalination facility.

Upon completion, the PV Plant will provide approximately 11% of the electricity needs of the desalination facility until June 30, 2044. This long-term commitment underscores GS Inima’s dedication to reducing its carbon footprint and enhancing the sustainability of its water treatment operations in Oman.
