The United Arab Emirates UAE, one of the world’s largest oil producers and exporters, launched on Thursday the UAE Wind Program with a project that added utility-scale wind power to its grid for the first time, the developer Abu Dhabi Future Energy Company PJSC – Masdar said. The program was kickstarted with a 103.5 megawatt MW project developed by Masdar with material science and aerodynamics to make wind power possible in the country.
As we look forward to hosting COP28, today's inauguration shows the UAE's firm commitment to this target, boosting clean energy investments both at home and abroad,” said Sultan Al Jaber, UAE Minister of Industry and Advanced Technology, COP28 President-Designate, and Chairman of Masdar. Time will tell how successful a wind power program will be in a country with low wind speeds, especially as the wind industry globally is currently facing headwinds.
