Abu Dhabi has outlined plans to invest close to USD43.6bn over the next five years to fast-track its energy transition, with clean and renewable sources now contributing over 45% to the emirate’s total energy mix.
This move supports wider strategic objectives to increase the share of clean energy to 60%, aligning with the UAE’s Net Zero 2050 agenda and reinforcing a sustained shift towards more sustainable energy systems.
Authorities indicated that the investment drive will play a key role in strengthening energy security, improving system resilience, and enabling economic growth through a more diversified, low-carbon energy portfolio.
The broader transition roadmap prioritises the expansion of renewable capacity alongside the adoption of advanced technologies, positioning Abu Dhabi as a leading force in regional clean energy innovation.
Looking ahead, capital deployment will be directed towards delivering measurable sustainability outcomes, backed by infrastructure development and long-term policy frameworks aimed at achieving lasting environmental impact.
