Abstract
This paper aims to assess and estimate the impact of electric vehicle (EV) penetration on annual electricity demand, specifically in Riyadh, the capital city of Saudi Arabia. Such an assessment can yield significant insights for stakeholders, including policymakers, energy planners, and utility companies, to anticipate and strategize for the expected rise in the level of electricity consumption. Consequently, this work can facilitate the establishment of sustainable energy infrastructure, ensuring a reliable power supply and reducing the risk of overloading the electrical grid.
