Abu Dhabi to Increase Renewable Energy Production
Articles — By forcechange on January 18, 2009 12:44 pm
Gulf emirate Abu Dhabi has announced its goal of producing 7% of its energy from renewable sources by 2020. The United Arab Emirates, which includes Abu Dhabi, is the fifth largest oil exporter in the world. Despite this fact, the emirate has focused quite a bit on clean energy.
Abu Dhabi is currently constructing a “zero emissions” suburb called Masdar City, and is also playing host to the World Future Energy Summit, which is being described as the “Davos of renewable energy.“ The Summit is set to open on Monday and hails itself as the “largest meeting of influential figures within the renewable energy industry.”
