Masdar Eyes 200 GW of Clean Energy Capacity

Masdar of Abu Dhabi is aiming to develop 200 GW of clean energy capacity as it pushes ahead with an ambitious expansion programme.

 

The ambitious target was revealed by Sultan al-Jaber, the UAE’s Industry Minister, CEO of Abu Dhabi National Oil Company (Adnoc) and chairman of Masdar at the Abu Dhabi Sustainability Week Summit, last month.

 

Masdar, which has already invested in renewables projects across 40 countries, is aiming to reach the target through solar and wind projects. “Our ambition is to accelerate this development globally to reach 100 GW, and ultimately double that again to 200 GW.”

 

While Al-Jaber did not set a timeline for the 200 GW target, the Abu Dhabi government recently confirmed that Masdar was aiming to increase its capacity to more than 50 GW by 2030.
