Best Practices for Contractor Safety Management in Renewable Energy Projects: A Saudi Arabian Perspective

This paper examines best practices for contractor safety management within utility-scale renewable energy projects in Saudi Arabia, with a focus on Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) developments. The paper discusses leadership commitment, contractor competency, risk-based planning, communication, commissioning safety, and continuous improvement as key drivers of safety performance. It presents practical insights for EPC contractors, project owners, and HSE professionals involved in the delivery of renewable energy infrastructure.
