Abstract
In this paper, the potential of Silicon development for photovoltaics will be discussed in conjunction with the availability of raw material and photovoltaic demand in Saudi Arabia. Recent studies by King Abdul aziz City for Science and Technology (KACST) suggest that Silicon raw material for photovoltaic production should be considered for further investigation towards solar cells manufacturing in Saudi Arabia.
