Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates<\/strong>\u2014Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum announced the UAE Energy Plan 2050, a program designed to produce a mix of\u00a0renewable, nuclear and clean energy sources.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur new energy plan balances supply and demand, and takes into consideration our international commitments in terms of the environment,\u201d he said in a prepared statement. \u201cIt also seeks to ensure a conducive economic environment for growth across sectors.\u201d<\/p>\n

The UAE aims to invest $163 billion by 2050 to boost clean energy contribution in the country\u2019s total energy mix to 50 percent. The 2050 plan seeks an energy mix of 44 percent clean energy, 38 percent gas, 12 percent clean coal and 6 percent nuclear.<\/p>\n

\u201cEnsuring the sustainability of energy resources guarantees the sustainability of our country\u2019s growth,\u201d added the prime minister. \u201cDrafting the first unified energy strategy in the country based on supply and demand is a significant achievement of the government. He who does not think of energy is not thinking about the future.\u201d<\/p>\n

The plan is slated to be implemented in three phases, with the first focusing on accelerating the move to efficient energy consumption while ensuring stable sources of energy and the diversification of energy sources. The second phase is targeted toward finding new energy-efficient solutions for transportation, while the third phase will revolve around research and development, as well as enhancing innovation and creativity in the supply of sustainable energy.<\/p>\n
