Global Engineering consultancy Enertis has been appointed as the Owner’s Engineer for the 100MW Amin photovoltaic (PV) solar plant, touted to be the first of its kind project in Oman, located approximately 210 km North East of Thumrait, Oman.
The Marubeni Consortium, comprising the Marubeni Corporation (Japan) as the lead founder, Oman Gas Company, Bahwan Renewable Energy Company and Modern Channels Services won the contract for this landmark project, from Petroleum Development Oman (PDO) in 2018.

Earlier in February this year, The Marubeni Consortium said that the scheduled commercial operation date is projected for May 2020.
