Solar success for Saudi

, May 23, 2013

A Saudi man walks on a street past a field of solar panels at the King Abdulaziz City of Sciences and Technology, Al-Oyeynah Research Station. A slide in solar power costs and a surge in oil prices over the last few years has made solar power a win-win strategy for Saudi Arabia, saving billions of dollars of crude for export while making electricity at less than half the cost.
