Speaking at MEED's 5th annual conference on corporate and project finance in the Middle East in London recently, Irfan said Abu Dhabi is likely to sell to the public stakes of other projects as well.

Baker & McKenzie is preparing a paper it will present to the Saudi Arabian General Investment Authority, a body created last year to facilitate foreign investment in the kingdom, on a 1972 law which states that the Saudi government has a monopoly over the electricity industry. This issue has arisen in importance since the SAGIA is charged with giving licenses for power projects, John Xefos, partner at Baker & McKenzie told delegates. Foreign sponsors looking to invest in a Saudi power project are "going to want a nice, clean legal opinion," Xefos said. Unfortunately, no only does the GIA's charter apparently conflict with the 1972 law, but "no one seems to have a copy."
