Arabian Electrical Transmission Line Construction Company (AETCON), a Saudi Arabia-based company, has secured a significant agreement to construct a high-voltage direct current (HVDC) transmission line within the country.
The contract, valued at $155 million, is associated with the “Saudi Neom-Yanbu 525kV HVDC Transmission Line Construction Project” and has been awarded by the Saudi Electricity Company.
