Saudi Ministry of Energy

The Ministry of Energy in Saudi Arabia oversees the country’s energy sector through policy development, regulation, and strategic enablement. Its integrated energy strategy covers hydrocarbons (oil, gas, refining, petrochemicals), electricity (conventional and renewable), and emerging areas like clean hydrogen and carbon management. The Ministry develops and implements sector strategies, supports decision-makers with studies, and ensures sustainable growth. Established in 1935 as part of the Public Works and Minerals Authority, it evolved into the Ministry of Petroleum and Mineral Resources in 1960, later becoming the Ministry of Energy, Industry and Mineral Resources in 2016, and finally the Ministry of Energy in 2019, focusing on leadership, transformation, and efficient strategic execution.
