Although petroleum production retains a crucial role in the Saudi economy, the kingdom is putting its chips on other forms of energy. Sudair, which can light up 185,000 homes, is the first of what could be many giant projects intended to raise output from renewable energy sources like solar and wind to around 50 percent by 2030. Currently, renewable energy accounts for a negligible amount of Saudi electricity generation.
Analysts say achieving that hugely ambitious goal is unlikely. “If they get 30 percent, I would be happy because that would be a good signal,” said Karim Elgendy, a climate analyst at the Middle East Institute, a research organization in Washington.

На работе ключевые позиции по-разному, естественно, рассказы начальства об улучшении процетных показателей в порядке вещей, количество настойчивых предложений записаться в какие-нибудь allies, посмотреть видео или посетить pride or whatever history month event не снижается. Allyship. Дблблд.
