The Emirates Water and Electricity Company (EWEC) has secured four new sites in Abu Dhabi, spanning 75 square kilometres, to develop 4.6 gigawatts (GW) of renewable energy projects. This significant step includes three solar photovoltaic (PV) plants in Al Faya, Al Khazna, and Al Zarraf, as well as a wind farm in Sila.
These projects will contribute 4.5 GW of solar PV capacity and up to 140 MW of wind power. They align with Abu Dhabi’s ambitious goal of achieving 10 GW of installed solar PV capacity by 2030 and 18 GW by 2035, ultimately supporting the UAE’s Net Zero by 2050 Strategic Initiative. Read More
