About ACWA Power UAE
ACWA Power is a Saudi developer, investor and operator of power generation, water desalination and green hydrogen plants. It is listed on the Saudi Exchange and has projects in many countries, including the UAE.
In Dubai, ACWA Power has been a key partner in the Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Solar Park, one of the world's largest renewable energy sites. It led the consortium behind Noor Energy 1, a project combining concentrated solar power with photovoltaic panels, developed with the Dubai Electricity and Water Authority.
Concentrated solar power uses mirrors to focus sunlight and produce heat, which can be stored in molten salt and used to generate electricity after sunset. This helps provide clean power around the clock, not only during the day.
ACWA Power has also been involved in other solar and water projects in the region.
The company typically works as an independent power producer, building and operating plants under long-term agreements to sell electricity or water to state utilities.
The UAE has set ambitious clean energy targets, and partnerships with international developers have helped deliver large projects at low costs.
ACWA Power is a Saudi company rather than a UAE startup, and Startups UAE lists its UAE projects among the country's renewable energy developments.
