About The Event
UAE CLIMATE TECH is the first-of-its-kind forum in response to the urgent need to decarbonize at-scale and deliver climate action while enabling socio-economic growth. Hosted by the Ministry of Industry and Advanced Technology (MoIAT), in partnership with ADNOC and Abu Dhabi Future Energy Company (Masdar).
The forum took place on May 10th and 11th, 2023, at the Abu Dhabi Energy Center. Held during the UAE Year of Sustainability, the forum drove momentum to accelerate efforts to reduce emissions by at least 43% by 2030 in line with the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) report. More than 1,000 global policymakers, CEOs, experts, academics, technology leaders, pioneering disruptors, and investors gathered at the forum to foster dialogue and collaboration on disruptive innovations and economic opportunities in accelerating decarbonization across all sectors.
UAE CLIMATE TECH built on the country’s legacy of climate leadership and practical and progressive climate solutions. The UAE has been a major investor in climate action, and its approach is underpinned by ADNOC’s $15 billion allocation to low-carbon solutions, new energies, and decarbonization technologies. On its part, Masdar is targeting 100 gigawatts (GW) of renewable energy capacity by 2030.
