The Saudi Accreditation Center has concluded a joint Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the Saudi Electricity Company at the Saudi Electricity Company's headquarters in Riyadh. The agreement establishes a framework to strengthen collaboration in accreditation fields and elevate the reliability of technical services, driving up operational quality and efficiency across the sector.

The MoU was signed by Mr. Hassan Al-Wohaibi, Deputy CEO for Operations at the Saudi Accreditation Center, and Eng. Nasser Al-Sulami, Vice President of Technical Services at the Saudi Electricity Company.

Under the partnership, the Saudi Accreditation Center will extend its accreditation services to cover the Saudi Electricity Company’s diverse operational activities. This framework enables the company to utilize laboratories, inspection bodies, and certification entities accredited by the Saudi Accreditation Center, ensuring highly reliable technical results and aligning utility operations with top-tier national and international benchmarks.

The strategic cooperation also places a strong emphasis on mutual knowledge transfer and institutional capacity building. Both sides will share expertise, run specialized technical training programs, and step up joint administrative, scientific, and research initiatives aimed at developing national talent within the quality control and accreditation spheres.

This initiative falls within the Saudi Accreditation Center's broader strategy to expand its network of public and private sector partnerships, ultimately supporting the development of the Kingdom's quality infrastructure and directly contributing to the strategic objectives of Saudi Vision 2030.
