Abu Dhabi Future Energy Company (Masdar) has nearly doubled its clean energy capacity and CO2 displacement in the space of two years, and is on track to become one of the world’s largest renewable energy companies by 2030.
Masdar achieved a clean energy capacity of 20 GW in 2022, generated 18,000 GWh of clean energy and displaced 10 million tonnes of CO2, says Masdar’s Sustainability Report, which covers its global operations for 2022 and highlights the launch of a Green Finance Framework, as well as the company’s commitment to health and safety, and the achievements for programmes involving women and young people.
In addition to green financing, Masdar’s Sustainability Report emphasised the company’s commitment to become a global green hydrogen leader with plans to produce up to 1 million tonnes of green hydrogen per annum by 2030.
Green hydrogen
Masdar is focused on meeting green hydrogen demand domestically and internationally by targeting key segments, including aviation, ammonia, steel, maritime, power, refining and heavy-duty transportation.
Masdar is active in more than 40 countries across six continents and has invested, or committed to invest, in worldwide projects with a combined value of more than $30 billion.
The Sustainability Report provides clear evidence of the UAE’s commitment to climate action and its credentials as a clean energy champion as it prepares to host COP28 later this year. With significant agreements and projects in the pipeline, Masdar is set to play a major role in the overall success of the UAE’s Year of Sustainability in 2023.
Key deals
In 2022, Masdar signed several significant agreements in new and existing markets including Uzbekistan, Azerbaijan, Egypt, Jordan, Kyrgyzstan, Turkmenistan, and Tanzania. The Sharjah Waste-to-Energy project, the first commercial scale waste to energy project in the Middle East was inaugurated in partnership with BEEAH, and work continued on the Al Dhafra Solar Photovoltaic (PV) Independent Power Producer Project, set to be the world’s largest single-site solar power plant upon completion.
Masdar has developed a Green Finance Framework to guide all future financing activities – including plans to become an issuer of Green Bonds in the debt capital markets – and to highlight Masdar’s significant contribution to sustainability and alignment with best financial industry practices.
Dr Sultan Ahmed Al Jaber, UAE Minister of Industry and Advanced Technology, Chairman of Masdar and COP28 President-Designate, said: “In the past 17 years, Masdar became one of the world’s largest renewable energy investors and drivers of the energy transition. Our momentum will see us accelerate global clean energy growth, expand our renewable energy footprint, and play a vital role in delivering the UAE’s Net Zero by 2050 strategic initiative.

As the UAE prepares to host COP28, we are keen to collaborate with all parties to help the world triple renewable energy capacity by 2030 and achieve the goals of the Paris Agreement. As such Masdar will continue to contribute to the advancement of renewable energy and sustainable development around the world.”
Mohamed Jameel Al Ramahi Chief Executive Officer, Masdar, said: “2022 was a pivotal year in our legacy of growth. We officially welcomed Adnoc and Taqa as Masdar’s shareholders alongside Mubadala, setting out on an ambitious course to grow our clean energy capacity to 100 GW and 1 million tonnes per year of green hydrogen production by 2030.
“Throughout our history, Masdar has proven to be a pioneering force for sustainable change. With a uniquely talented team and a strong network of partners behind us, the future promises to be even brighter for Masdar, the UAE, and the world.”
Sustainable financing
Niall Hannigan, Chief Financial Officer, Masdar, said: “Sustainable financing is more in demand than ever. Through our work we are creating opportunities for financial institutions to become part of the green financing agenda and to really put sustainable investments at the core of everything they do.
“Every dollar of debt capital we raise will be deployed into developing green projects across the globe to the highest ESG standards, and a substantial proportion of that deployment will be in developing countries.”
Highlighting the increasing role for women in the company, Masdar’s Sustainability Report also revealed nearly 25% of all women employed by Masdar are in supervisory roles, and at the youth level, Masdar’s Youth 4 Sustainability (Y4S) platform is seeking to reach one million young people by 2030 through its blended learning experience.

In alignment with its duty to develop solutions and regulations to combat climate change, enhance air quality, and safeguard the environment, the UAE Ministry of Climate Change and Environment issued Decree No. (138) of 2023. This decree pertains to regulating the use and distribution of Hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) in the country, aiming to control their circulation and prevent their emission into the atmosphere.
This decree is established within the context of the Year of Sustainability, aligning with the UAE's preparations to host the 28th Conference of the Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (COP28) this year. Hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), often referred to as refrigerant gases, are classified among greenhouse gases that intensify global warming and affect the ozone layer. Hence, this decree is a significant step in the UAE's endeavor to uphold its obligations towards climate change mitigation and curbing harmful emissions.
The regulations outlined in this decision are applicable across the UAE, encompassing all free zones and entities engaged in HFC-related activities. As per the decision, all such establishments must adhere to several procedures. These include registering with the Ministry of Climate Change and Environment, providing the establishment's commercial or industrial license, obtaining a warehouse license, and reporting the annual quantities of Hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) imported over the past three years.
Moreover, they must secure a permit from the ministry to manufacture, import, export, re-export, or transit HFCs or recycled or reclaimed materials derived from HFCs, following all necessary approvals from local authorities.
The decree also stipulates that establishments must submit to the ministry quarterly reports detailing the quantities of hydrofluorocarbons sold, utilized, and remaining in stock. They also need to secure prior consent from the relevant authority when disposing of waste hydrofluorocarbons and equipment containing them. For transboundary disposals, establishments must adhere to the obligations of the signatory nations under the Basel Convention, which governs the control of cross-border movements of hazardous wastes and their disposal.
This decree aligns with the UAE's commitments under the Vienna Convention and the Montreal Protocol concerning substances that deplete the ozone layer. Since joining the Convention in 1989 and the Protocol in 1990, the UAE has been at the forefront of efforts to restore the ozone layer's protective capacity against harmful ultraviolet rays that affect human health and the environment.
Cooling systems account for 7% of global greenhouse gas emissions, and projections suggest a significant increase in these emissions by 2050 due to the escalating average temperature of the Earth.
The measures adopted under this new law concentrate on establishing legislation and guidelines to regulate the use of ozone-depleting substances and monitor their import and export. Through its unaided efforts, the UAE has successfully met its commitments to completely prohibit chlorofluorocarbons and halons by the prescribed deadline in 2010.
Moreover, the nation is progressively phasing out the use of HFCs in compliance with the quotas and timelines established at the nineteenth meeting of the Parties, intending to ban them entirely by 2040.

Dubai has announced the commencement of a trial for autonomous electric abras in its city waters.
The Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) has initiated the trial operation of the first self-driving electric abras, designed to accommodate eight passengers. Manufactured locally at the RTA’s Al Garhoud Marine Maintenance Centre, these abras feature a design that preserves the heritage identity of traditional abras.
The inaugural journey of the autonomous electric abra took place from Al Jaddaf Station to the Festival City Station on Dubai Creek. Mattar Al Tayer, Director General and Chairman of the Board of Executive Directors at RTA, emphasised that the operation of the Autonomous Electric Abra aligns with the Dubai Strategy for Self-Driving Transport.
The strategy aims to transform 25% of Dubai’s mobility journeys into self-driving journeys by 2030. Additionally, it contributes to Dubai’s master plan to reduce carbon emissions from public transport, as mandated by the Dubai Supreme Council of Energy.
The Autonomous Electric Abra boasts several noteworthy features, including zero carbon emissions, a 30% reduction in operating and maintenance costs compared to diesel-powered models, and noise elimination. Equipped with two electric motors capable of reaching a maximum speed of seven knots, it operates autonomously through an autonomous control system and four lithium batteries that provide a seven-hour operating time.
Zero carbon emissions
The design of the Autonomous Electric Abra incorporates new technologies, such as fiberglass in the hull, to reduce weight. During the trial run, it achieved Level 4 out of the six levels of international autonomy for ship design and operation. The trials, conducted in collaboration with Exalto Emirates and Marakeb companies, involved fully autonomous procedures, independent of the captain who acted as the operation supervisor only when necessary.
These autonomous procedures ensure adherence to the predetermined route, considering the impact of waves and wind. They also involve obstacle detection, system defect or deviation notification to the control centre, intervention in the presence of obstacles, and programming of additional scenarios to handle unexpected situations.
RTA plans to further develop automated anchoring operations and decision-making scenarios during manoeuvring and emergencies. The goal is to reach Level 5 autonomy and collaborate with the Dubai Maritime City Authority in establishing legislation for autonomous marine vehicles.
As part of its marine transport development master plan, RTA aims to enhance the capacity of traditional abra stations in Dubai Creek, including Bur Dubai, Deira Old Souk, Dubai Old Souk, and Al Sabkha.
The plan involves utilizing advanced technologies to reduce maintenance costs, extend asset lifespan, improve station and marina lighting, and provide customer facilities and investment areas. In 2022, marine transport served approximately 16 million passengers, highlighting its significance in achieving smooth mobility within the Emirate of Dubai.
