How is Dubai advancing towards achieving Net-Zero emissions by 2050, and what role does DEWA play in this mission?

Dubai is committed to reaching Net-Zero emissions by 2050 through major sustainable energy initiatives led by DEWA and guided by the vision of UAE’s leaders, including His Highness Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan and His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum. As the Principal Pathway Partner of COP28, DEWA is advancing digital transformation in energy and water sectors through technologies like AI and IoT, contributing to Dubai’s Clean Energy Strategy 2050. With milestones like the Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Solar Park, the world’s largest solar site, and the solar-powered Hassyan desalination plant, Dubai is poised to exceed its 2030 clean energy targets and reduce carbon emissions by 44 million tonnes by then. DEWA's partnership with the Abu Dhabi Fund for Development (ADFD) has also enabled the UAE to support renewable energy projects globally, reinforcing the UAE's leadership in climate action and a sustainable future. These initiatives underline a broad approach involving industry, youth, and community contributions, ensuring that Dubai remains a global hub for sustainability.
