We hope the MENA SC, organised by DEWA, will become a global platform that enhances the momentum of climate action through innovations that enhance energy efficiency, support the transition towards a net-zero future, and meet the urgent need to overcome current and future challenges,” remarked Mr. Saeed Mohammed Al Tayer, MD & CEO of DEWA.
“Moreover, the conference supports our efforts to achieve the Dubai Clean Energy Strategy 2050 and the Dubai Net Zero Carbon Emissions Strategy 2050 to provide 100 percent of Dubai’s total power production capacity from clean energy sources by 2050 and to consolidate the leadership of the UAE in global efforts aimed at addressing climate change, especially on the Year of Sustainability in the UAE. This year, the country is getting ready to host the COP28 by the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) in Dubai Expo City in November,” Mr. Al Tayer added.
