UAE Wind Program | The Official Platform of the UAE Government
Developed by Abu Dhabi Future Energy Company (Masdar), the Wind Program marks a new milestone in introducing utility-scale wind power to the UAE''s energy mix. It
It was launched in 2012 by His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, the Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and the Ruler of Dubai. The development of the solar park will further boost Dubai's status as a global leader in the clean and renewable energy sector.
The Dubai Solar Plant is the world's largest single-site solar energy project, based on the Independent Power Producer (IPP) model. It has been implemented by the Dubai Electricity and Water Authority (DEWA). The Dubai Solar Park, which will cost AED 50 billion to build, is expected to produce around 5,000 MW by 2030.
The plant was implemented by the Dubai Electricity and Water Authority (DEWA). The first phase of the project was commissioned on 22 October 2013. At the end of 2020 the solar PV complex reached a generating capacity of 1.013 GW with the aim to reach 5GW by 2030.
The Dubai Solar Park has a water desalination plant and a Research and Development Centre. The water desalination plant is powered by solar energy and uses Reverse Osmosis (RO) technology. The production capacity is 50 cubic metres, which is around 11,000 gallons a day.
