Under the terms of a strategic agreement, Reliance and TA'ZIZ will build plants with capacity to produce 940,000 mt/year of chlor-alkali, 1.1 million mt/year of ethylene dichloride and 360,000 mt/year of polyvinyl chloride at the TA'ZIZ Industrial Chemicals Zone, ADNOC said in a June 29 statement.

Dubai Electricity and Water Authority (DEWA) has announced that its installed capacity has reached 12,900 megawatts (MW) of electricity and 490 million imperial gallons of desalinated water per day (MIGD) thanks to its state-of-the-art infrastructure, innovation and planning.

The UAE is investing in various hydrogen projects as the Gulf state seeks to capitalize on the global appetite for green energy products as the energy transition trend gains momentum.

Siemens Energy, in collaboration with Dubai Electricity and Water Authority (DEWA) and Expo 2020 Dubai, has inaugurated the first industrial scale, solar-driven green hydrogen facility in the Middle East and North Africa.

UAE bets on solar and green hydrogen to reduce its emissions.

Green hydrogen is produced from renewable energy, while blue hydrogen is derived from fossil fuels with carbon capture, utilization and storage.

Japan's Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry on April 8 signed a memorandum of cooperation with the UAE's Ministry of Energy & Infrastructure to jointly consider developing an international hydrogen supply chain with an eye to supply the fuel to Japan.

A little more than a decade ago, the UAE made a firm commitment to become the first Arab nation to develop a peaceful nuclear energy programme.
