The “Line Plan” in Saudi Arabia to Reduce Carbon Emissions

• To cope with high temperatures and strong winds, Saudi Arabia launched “The line” plan
• The purpose of “The line’ is to reduce carbon emissions.
• “The line” plan has its benefits and limitations.

Now the world has met with unprecedented changes in middle part of Asia. The first attacked one is Saudi Arabia.The Middle Eastern countries are prone to high temperatures and strong winds which are perfect for energy production. Saudi Arabia has developed “THE LINE” that produces less carbon emissions to help save the environment.

In faced with such poor living condition, it is necessary to take instant actions to cope with it. Conductor hardware includes a variety of power line products, such as formed wire, lugs & terminals and splice connectors. In power systems, these components and accessories support and connect conductors. They create an electrical connection between parts of an electrical circuit, or between different electrical circuits, thereby joining them into a larger circuit. They also provide support to other components and applications.

We focus on the sustainable development also focus on infrastructure construction to promote the progress of whole world.

What is “The Line”?

“THE LINE” is a smart, straight city under development in Saudi Arabia, in Neom city, which is designed to have no cars, streets or carbon emissions. It is built on a 34 square kilometer piece of land and is expected to hold around 9 million people.

The plan for the construction of THE LINE was declared on January 10, 2021, and the work started in October 2021. The plan consists of two mirrored buildings with an outdoor space in between. This would make it the 12th tallest building in the world. The construction of such a building is expected to use all the power line hardware devices in order to ensure energy efficiency for all the residents. All the cities services are expected to be reachable within a five minute walk.

What is the purpose of The Line in Saudi Arabia?

The Line claims to set a new benchmark for sustainable development. Its footprint is just 34 square kilometres (less than 4 square metres per person), occupying a fraction of NEOM’s 26,500-square-kilometre site. This allows for a lighter touch on the landscape than would normally be expected for a mega city.

How does it work in real situation?

The mirrored skyscraper design marks the latest development of his Neom project in Saudi Arabia, a mega-development spanning three countries that began construction in 2019.
The metropolis is said to be powered by clean energy and run with the help of artificial intelligence. Headlines of robot girls, flying taxis, and giant artificial moons point to the promised technological paradise.
“Design is… It challenges traditional flat and horizontal cities and creates a model for nature conservation and improving the quality of human life. This line addresses the challenges facing humanity in urban living today and sheds light on alternative ways of life,” Bin Salman said in a release.
The Neom project is backed by the Saudi government and its Sovereign Wealth fund, the Saudi Public Investment Fund (PIF), chaired by bin Salman, and US$500 billion from domestic and foreign investors.
Originally he was scheduled for 2025, but delays pushed him off Neom’s completion date by another five years, but the crown prince insists the ambitious project is on track.

Benefits of “The Line” in Saudi Arabia

• This will be the world’s first smart city completely built after the dawn of artificial intelligence. It is made smart by the automation and data-driven infrastructure.
• It will lead to 95% land conservation as this percentage will be left protected and undisturbed.
• The city will run completely on clean energy which means that transportation, infrastructure and manufacturing will be zero emissions.
• The longest time taken to get to work, store and hospitals is expected to be 25 minutes due to the fast transportation system installed.
• Since there are no cars or buses in The Line, pollution and congestion is cut down. The city is fully walkable and accessible to anyone regardless of the economic status.

Limitations of “The Line” in Saudi Arabia

Despite having many advantages, The Line has also acquired some limitations that have been noticed such as the use of artificial intelligence will lead to surveillance of the entire city, the construction of such a tall building cannot lack some low footprint of carbon emissions and finally due to the lack of people’s rights in Saudi Arabia, the information given out by the residents may be misused. Power line hardware help in providing safety and security by preventing faulty currents from flowing to the earth.
