Construction materials will be sourced from Abu Dhabi\u2019s sustainable supply chain to keep the development process as green as possible. Such materials include recycled steel, low-carbon concrete (containing granulated blasted slag instead of traditional cement, thus reducing its carbon footprint by 30 to 40 percent), 90 percent recycled-content aluminum and sustainably sourced timber.<\/p>\n<p>It is no surprise then that the complex will try for a four-pearl Estidama Pearl Building Rating System certification, one of the strictest energy efficiency and sustainability standards in the world.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe buildings integrate cutting-edge technologies in energy efficiency, green building and water conservation. We remain committed to the growth of Masdar City as a technology cluster, enabling companies to set up Middle East operations to support the achievement of regional renewable energy targets and the development of clean technologies,\u201d said Sultan Ahmed Al Jaber, CEO and managing director of Masdar in a prepared statement.<\/p>\n<p>The Masdar headquarters will be the most advanced mixed-use sustainable development in the United Arab Emirates. \u201cThe building is a shining example of how we can meet our energy needs today while preserving the earth\u2019s resources for tomorrow,\u201d said Adnan Amin, director-general of IRENA in a news release. \u201cIt\u2019s only fitting that the headquarters of IRENA\u2014dedicated to the sustainable use of renewable energy\u2014be located in one of the most sustainable buildings in the world.\u201d \u00a0IRENA is currently located in Khalidiya, Abu Dhabi.<\/p>\n<p>IRENA was involved in designing its future headquarters so that the building will meet all of its organizational requirements. Others involved in bringing the project to life include Woods Baggot and Brookfield Multiplex. While architectural firm Woods Bagot is responsible for the development\u2019s concept, Brookfield Multiplex, part of Brookfield Australia, received the design and construction contract. Brookfield Multiplex was the general contractor on high-profile projects such as the new Wembley Stadium in London, Dubai\u2019s Emirates Towers and Australia\u2019s Central park tower.<\/p>\n<p>Masdar is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Mubadala Development Company, an Abu Dhabi Government-owned entity set up to stimulate economic diversification and development in the emirate. Masdar City is a unit of Masdar and a community serving as the model of green urban development, a clean technology research and development center, a platform for pilot projects, technology and materials testing. Masdar City is also a special economic development zone with benefits such as zero percent import tariffs, zero percent taxes on companies and individuals, no currency restrictions as well no restrictions on capital movements, profits and quotas.<\/p>\n<p>Masdar City is already operational and in full development. It is expected to cover 7 square miles by the end of 2012.\u00a0 When completed in 2025, Masdar City is expected to have 40,000 residents and more than 50,000 commuters. Its estimated cost is estimated between $18 and $19 billion.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Masdar City, the low-carbon, low-waste, emerging cleantech cluster and one of the most sustainable communities and mixed-use developments in the world continues its trailblazing development in United Arab Emirates.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":49,"featured_media":1004049847,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[21782,16,21783,21752,21742,21747,21749,21786],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1004049844","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-development","category-international","category-investment","category-mixed-use","category-latest","category-office","category-retail","category-sustainability"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v28.0 (Yoast SEO v28.0) -
