Emirates National Oil Company (ENOC), the official integrated energy partner of Expo 2020 Dubai, has reaffirmed its commitment to furthering Dubai’s Clean Energy Strategy 2050.

The strategy aims to make Dubai a global center of clean energy and a green economy. It consists of five main pillars: infrastructure, legislation, funding, building capacities and skills, and environment-friendly energy mix.

The UAE had said earlier that it will invest around $163 billion in clean energy by 2050. The new target aligns the UAE with most of the major economies of the world to avoid the worst effects of global warming.

The clean energy commitment is the most recent from countries ahead of the United Nations-sponsored COP26 climate talks, which will begin later this month in Glasgow, Scotland. UAE is the first country in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region to take significant steps to meet its climate commitment.
