In the UAE, we are committed to meeting our net-zero targets and enhancing the country's future readiness. In this context, the UAE Government has recently approved the updated UAE Energy Strategy 2050 and the National Hydrogen Strategy. The move was in line with the 'We the UAE 2031' Vision and the UAE's role as a main contributor to the global agenda for environmental sustainability.

The two strategies help turn the UAE into a major global economic hub in the next three decades and support the objectives of the National Strategy for Wellbeing 2031 and the UAE Net Zero by 2050 Strategic Initiative. Their targets are in line with the Year of Sustainability's theme 'Today for Tomorrow' and the UAE's priorities as the host of the 28th UN Climate Change Conference (COP28).

Both strategies seek to spur a clean energy boom and outline a sustainable development based on green economy. They accelerate the energy transition and increase the share of clean energy in our energy mix. As one of the first countries in the region to ratify the Paris Agreement, the UAE is committed to joining forces with the international community to drive collective action to limit global warming.
