Oman’s O-Green to Pioneer 58 MW Wind Power Pilot in Duqm

Omani state-backed integrated clean energy platform, O-Green, is advancing a pilot wind farm in the Duqm Special Economic Zone (SEZ). Formally named the Duqm North and South Wind Project (DNSWP), the development will feature a cluster of six wind turbine generators with a total installed capacity of 58 MW

Founded recently in 2025 as a strategic partnership between OQ Alternative Energy—a subsidiary of the OQ Group—and the state-owned enterprise Naqaa Sustainable Energy, O-Green is rapidly establishing itself as a regional powerhouse. The company is currently advancing a landmark initiative situated within the Duqm Special Economic Zone (SEZ), formally titled the Duqm North and South Wind Project (DNSWP).

This ambitious pilot farm will feature a concentrated cluster of six highly advanced wind turbine generators, ultimately delivering a total installed capacity of 58 megawatts (MW). What makes this development particularly noteworthy is the sheer scale of the hardware; each individual turbine will boast a capacity of 9.6 MW, officially making them the largest individual turbines of their specific kind currently deployed anywhere in the Middle East. Strategically planned for deployment across two distinct sites within the SEZ, the DNSWP is projected to generate an impressive 190 gigawatt-hours of electricity on an annual basis.

Crucially, the power generated by these massive turbines has a dedicated and innovative purpose. The 190 gigawatt-hours of clean electricity will directly contribute to the decarbonisation of a brand-new wind turbine manufacturing plant, which O-Green is also currently developing within the Duqm area. This manufacturing facility represents a first-of-its-kind endeavour in the Sultanate. Currently in the early stages of its development, Phase 1 of this facility will specifically focus on producing multi-megawatt-class turbines. To achieve this, O-Green is utilising cutting-edge technology licensed from Shanghai Electric Group, widely recognised as a major player in China's burgeoning clean energy equipment manufacturing sector.

Beyond the Duqm pilot, O-Green is aggressively expanding its domestic portfolio. A standout initiative currently under implementation is a monumental 2.7 GW round-the-clock renewable energy mega-project, which seamlessly integrates solar, wind, and battery energy storage systems across Duqm and Mahout. Securing the commercial viability of this massive undertaking, O-Green recently signed a long-term Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) with the Nama Power and Water Procurement Company (PWP), the sole buyer of power and water in Oman. Furthermore, O-Green has partnered strategically with the Public Establishment for Industrial Estates (Madayn) to implement a 93 MW solar power plant in Suhar Industrial City. Slated to commence commercial operations this September, it will supply vital clean energy to more than 200 industrial facilities.

O-Green's vision is not confined to the Arabian Peninsula. On the African continent, a bilateral partnership with the Botswana Power Corporation is driving the development of a 500 MW solar photovoltaic (PV) plant in Maun. This project serves as a foundational step in a broader cooperative initiative targeting up to 3,000 MW of combined capacity in the future. Concurrently, O-Green is targeting the future of digital infrastructure, focusing on the creation of AI-enabled, cloud, and hyperscale data centres in both Oman and Europe, all powered by dependable and competitively priced renewable energy.

These diverse projects are all integral components of O-Green’s expansive global portfolio, which aims to exceed 11 GW of solar and wind generation capacity, alongside 4.5 gigawatt-hours of battery energy storage. With more than 3.3 GW of generation and 2.4 gigawatt-hours of storage already successfully secured, the company is demonstrating a formidable commitment to the global energy transition.
