RUSTAQ — The electricity sector in South Al Batinah has demonstrated significant progress in infrastructure development during the second quarter of 2025, according to the seventh edition of the “Economic and Development Reports – Electricity Sector Plan.”

Nama Distribution Company reported that its operational outcomes reflect a strong commitment to expanding the electrical network to accommodate increasing demand. While several projects have exceeded their planned targets, others experienced logistical challenges that the company is actively addressing through strategic measures.

Key milestones include the Al Shaabiya Southern Power Transformer Station in Al Musannah, which reached 100 percent completion ahead of schedule. Meanwhile, the power station project in Wadi Al Ma’awil achieved 45 percent completion, falling short of the 65 percent target.

The Khazaen transformer station in Nakhal reached 53 percent completion, below the 62 percent target. In Rustaq, rehabilitation of the 33 and 11 kV network in valley areas attained 90 percent progress against a 98 percent goal, with delays mainly due to difficulties operating within residential zones.

Electrical extension projects across the governorate achieved 50 percent completion, close to the 54 percent target, reflecting steady advancement in meeting the region’s rising energy demands.

These achievements represent a crucial step toward enhancing South Al Batinah’s electrical infrastructure, facilitating urban and economic growth, and ensuring a sustainable energy supply for the future. — ONA
