Once fully operational, the power plant will be the largest combined cycle power plant in the world.The existing PP10 facility, an open cycle power plant, is located on the outskirts of Riyadh City in the central province of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and will be converted to a combined cycle facility. The new power plant will consist of ten blocks, arranged in 4-on-1 configuration. The gas turbines are site-rated at 55.91 MW per unit and will operate mainly on Arabian crude oil. The total capacity of the power plant will be increased from approximately 2,200 MW to approximately 3,500 MW.
