UAE company Masdar announced Tuesday that construction on the 800MW phase three of the Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Solar Park in Dubai is expected to begin at the end of January 2017.
Vice President and Prime Minister of the United Arab Emirates Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum announced the UAE’s new energy strategy for the next 30 years.
Abu Dhabi’s leading renewable energy firm Masdar has completed eight new solar PV projects in rural communities in Mauritania, doubling the amount of clean power provided to the Islamic Republic nation and powering some 39,000 homes.
Masdar’s five small-scale solar energy projects are to be inaugurated this week in the Pacific Island countries and territories under the US$50 million UAE-Pacific Partnership Fund (UAE-PPD).
A new 767kW solar power project was recently completed in the Pacific nation of Vanuatu — marking the latest undertaking performed by the United Arab Emirates-Pacific Partnership Fund (UAE-PPF).
