Saudi Electricity Company's journey began on the 5th of April of 2000 when it was founded as a company aimed at upgrading the Kingdom's energy industry by connecting its networks and leveraging the shared potential to produce and plan energy nationally.

Currently, the Saudi Electricity Company has established its name in the energy world, keeping pace with technical development and harnessing its energies to achieve its aspirations.
