NEOM will hold a number of facilities all powered entirely by renewable, clean energy.

These include encompasses vertical city THE LINE, business hub Oxagon, luxury yachting destination Sindalah and the mountain resort of Torjena, he specified.

“The area where NEOM is being developed is the perfect place to turn the vision of sus living into a reality,” he said.
