OUR VISION

MR. SALAH AL AMRICEO, GCC ELECTRICAL TESTING LABRATORY

The GCC Electrical Testing Lab (GCC Lab) continued on its path to operational success in 2017 to execute the approved Operating Plan of 2017 and expand the business basis to achieve the Long-Term Strategic Objectives.

During 2017, the Company has developed its essential capabilities and focused on the development of its international partnerships to achieve world-class Testing, Inspection & Certifications Services (TIC) and enable significant localisation industry in the power & renewable sectors, and completed the JV partnerships with UL and CESI. Additionally, we have made considerable progress towards operationalising three primary business lines: the GCC Industrial Lab (Industrial & Power), the GCC Renewables Lab (Renewables & Safety), and the GCC Calibration Lab (Calibration & Testing). The company established relationships with Saudi Aramco, SEC, GE, ABB, Saudi Universities, ECRA, SASO, Training Centers, KACARE, KACST, Transco, Oman Transmission and others to build its business share of the GCC Lab at this early stage. Expansion and development continue at a sustainable pace as GCC Lab carries out its business plan and establishes more outreach and transactions. The company was officially registered as a Training Center to provide speciality training in the different fields of safety, testing, quality and Solar PV installations.

A MESSAGE FROM OUR CEO

It has become a member in SASO PV Standards National Committee and SASO Electric Cars Standards Committee; It started its first contracted R&D item with KACARE to build a pilot PV Test Fields in dry and humid areas for monitoring & standards development; and achieved a potential revenue derived from several ongoing contracts and will continue to procure more business.

The company will continue to pursue its long-term service offerings by executing a short-term operational planning strategy, which identifies and accomplishes its short-term strategic priorities: to develop internal capabilities, to build physical and IT infrastructure, to accelerate business growth, and to establish strategic partnerships. It also has set goals across the different vertices to ensure each priority is achieved; and will continue to implement initiatives that will achieve identified strategic priorities and goals. The focus of GCC Lab remains on operationalisation of business lines and expansion of market reach. GCC Lab continues to develop strategies and assess partners for other capabilities, including LV Appliances & Electric Safety TIC, Training & Consulting, and Research & Development. The company anticipates operationalising the GCC Asset Company and GCC Services Company entities in 2018. As individual business lines become operational, they will be responsible for their business planning and for initiating future phases of operations. We continue to rely on the Board’s continued support and engagement as shareholders, as we look forward to 2019 and beyond to attain the brightest future for the GCC Electricity Market.

TIC1 MARKET DRIVERS IN MENA REGION

GCC LAB COMPANY STRUCTURE

The MENA region is identified as having a drastic shortage of local specialised testing laboratories within the energy sector.

Much of the business was outsourced to other regionsto accommodate the requirement.

GCC Lab is best geared at servicing this shortage within the region, providing a service offering that is reliable, certified and backed by some of the biggest names in the industry.

GULF INDUSTRIAL LAB (GIL)PARTNERSHIPS ESTABLISHED

Laboratory facilities The GCC Laboratory will consist of three distinctive laboratories: High Voltage, high power and low voltage laboratories, in addition to many other necessary laboratories to complete the required tests such as mechanical, chemical, materials testing and calibration and others.

1- High Voltage Laboratory (HV): The HV lab will be equipped with high voltage sources and testing halls of suitable dimensions for testing medium and high voltage electrical equipment with rated voltages up to 420 kV. The HV Lab will offer comprehensive testing facilities for most of the electrical equipment including insulators, transformers, switchgear, cables, & cable accessories. The Lab will be capable of performing the required type, special and routine tests as per relevant local and international standards. The primary testing facilities are:

2-High Power Laboratory (HP): The HP laboratory will be initially equipped with two short-circuit generators, with the future addition of 3rd generator. The Lab will be capable of providing short time current tests for medium and high voltage switchgear, breakers, cables, transformers and others for equipment frequencies of 50 and 60 Hz.The HP Lab facilities will have the following capabilities

3-Low Voltage Lab (LV): The LV laboratory will be capable of performing all required safety, acceptance, efficiency and performance tests for household appliances such as air-conditioning, refrigerators, food freezers, cooking and heating appliances, washing appliances and microwave ovens and other products. The tests will include measurements of voltages, currents, resistance, electrical power, electrical energy, temperatures, distances, thicknesses, masses, forces, dielectric strength, mechanical strength, abnormal operation and flammability of plastic materials. The LV laboratory will have the capability to perform a test of appliances with supply voltages 110-240 Volt, single phase 50 or 60 Hz and 400-460 Volts, three phase 50 or 60 Hz.
