Harnessing solar efficiency
DEWA's (Dubai Electricity and Water Authority) Hatta hydroelectric power plant is another great example. It is the first of its kind in the GCC. With a storage capacity of over 1500 MW, it uses water stored in the Hatta Dam to generate solar energy.
Green hydrogen for a clean future
Dubai is spearheading the development of novel technologies for green hydrogen production using clean and renewable energy. Green hydrogen production is projected to increase by 57% annually, reaching 5.7 million tonnes in 2030. The UAE is actively seeking global competition in the low carbon hydrogen sector, aiming to acquire 25% of the market, which is estimated to hit US$400 billion (AED1.47 trillion).
