Emerge, a joint venture between the UAE-based Masdar and the French group EDF, has signed a memorandum of understanding with ADNOC Sour Gas to explore the use of solar energy at the Shah Gas Plant.
According to
Amac News: The company has also signed an agreement with Pipetec, a leading innovator in the hot-bending pipe industry, to implement a solar photovoltaic (PV) system project at its KEZAD facility.
Emerge has also launched a 1.8 MW solar power plant project with Coca-Cola Al Ahli Beverages, supporting its bottling facility in Al Ain and helping to reduce approximately 1,566 tonnes of carbon dioxide per year.
Emerge sees the partnerships as supporting the company’s efforts to reduce carbon emissions, while also providing a significant opportunity to expand its presence in supporting local businesses with sustainability goals.
The agreements come as Emerge aims to triple its operational capacity in solar power plants to 30 MW by 2024 (up from 10 MW last year), providing clean electricity to 38 commercial, industrial, educational and hospitality sites across the UAE.
Emerge has also doubled its team size, achieved zero injuries and signed contracts to develop solar projects with an additional 147 MW of generating capacity during the year, demonstrating significant growth in the company’s project pipeline and revenue potential.
