If there is one thing that isn’t in short supply in the Middle East it is sunshine, and the UAE is capitalising on solar power in its move towards renewable energy. Dubai plans to invest AED 50 billion dirhams ($14 billion) to generate a total of 5,000 megawatts of power by 2030 at the Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Solar Park, helping provide 25 per cent of the emirate’s electricity from clean energy sources. By 2050, Dubai’s Clean Energy Strategy is targeting 75 per cent.
