ABU DHABI, 17th January, 2022 (WAM) -- Suhail bin Mohammed Al Mazrouei, Minister of Energy and Infrastructure, has said that the Abu Dhabi Sustainability Week (ADSW) is a global platform for starting a promising era of sustainable development and highlights the UAE’s leading efforts to build a more sustainable global future.

In his statement to the Emirates News Agency (WAM) during the launch of ADSW 2022, Al Mazrouei stressed that the UAE has become a leader in utilising low-carbon energy, due to the directives of its leadership.

The UAE also priorities the diversification of energy sources, which helps maintain a balance between sustainable development and environmental protection, he added.

The UAE has adopted a transparent green transformation strategy, which includes investing in green energy, crowned by the announcement of its plan to achieve carbon neutrality by 2050, he further added.

Hydrogen is a source of green energy that will support the country’s green transformation efforts, Al Mazrouei pointed out. The UAE has the first green hydrogen production plant in the Middle East.

The UAE plans to lead in hydrogen production and help achieve carbon neutrality, as part of its leadership’s directives to find solutions to issues caused by climate change, he said. Solar
