The projects will ensure that the network is resilient and capable of handling the changing energy mix from low-carbon sources, such as solar and nuclear

The latest phase of the solar park, which covers 20 square kilometers, is being executed under the Independent Power Producer (IPP) model, a collaboration between DEWA and Masdar through their joint venture, Shuaa Energy 4.

The collaboration aligns with Masdar’s strategy to achieve a renewable energy portfolio of 100 GW by 2030 while advancing its ambitions in green hydrogen production.

Once operational in Q3 2026, Al Ajban is expected to generate enough electricity to power 160,000 homes and reduce carbon dioxide emissions by over 2.4 million tons annually.

The agreements include a 5 GW floating solar power project on Lake Nasser and a 2.8 GW solar project in Nagaa Hammadi

The project introduces a mobile platform designed to capture up to 0.25 tonnes of CO2 per day, providing a practical model for future carbon capture applications in the power generation sector.
