Structure

[edit]

ACWA Power's board of directors is chaired by Mohammad Abdullah Abunayyan,[10] with Raad Al Saady as its Vice Chairman and Managing Director,[11] and Marco Arcelli as its CEO.[12]

History

[edit]

In 2002, the Government of Saudi Arabia changed the regulations so that the private sector was permitted to own and operate utilities such as water and power plants. The company was originally founded in 2004 as ACWA Power Projects, a joint venture between ACWA Holding (representing the Abunayyan Holding Company and Al-Muhaidib, today known as Vision International Investment Company) and the MADA Group for Industrial and Commercial Development (today known as Al Rajhi Group Holding) to take advantage of these new private sector investment and operation opportunities in the Saudi Arabian market. The company was reorganised in 2006 in its current legal form as ACWA Power Company.[13] From 2004 to 2011, ACWA Power focused primarily on Saudi Arabia, and was awarded contracts for several thermal power projects – including the Shuaibah IWPP, Shuqaiq 2 IWPP, Rabigh IPP and Marafiq IPP.[14][15][16][17] The company began international expansion in 2011 with the acquisition of Central Electricity Generating Company (CEGCO) in Jordan, and the signature of a joint development agreement for the Kirikkale Combined Cycle Gas Turbine project in Turkey, which subsequently won backing from the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD).[18][19][20][21] The company has since expanded to presently 13 countries covering the Middle East, Africa, Central Asia and Asia.[22]

The Public Investment Fund, the sovereign wealth fund of Saudi Arabia, acquired a 15% stake in ACWA Power in 2018, and has since increased that to the current 44% shareholder.[23]
