Saudi Arabia denies it shelved SoftBank solar project: state news

An official at Saudi Arabia`s Public Investment Fund (PIF) said on Monday that a Wall Street Journal report that it had shelved a $200 billion plan with SoftBank Group Corp to build the world`s biggest solar-power-generation project was "incorrect."

PIF "continues to work with the SoftBank Vision Fund and other institutions on a number of large-scale, multi-billion-dollar solar projects which will be announced at the appropriate time," said a statement cited by state news agency SPA.
