King of Eswatini learns about DEWA's efforts to achieve net zero by 2050 during his visit to the Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Solar Park

His Majesty King Mswati III of Eswatini visited the Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Solar Park in Dubai, where he learned about the efforts of Dubai Electricity and Water Authority (DEWA) in achieving sustainability, as well as the latest solutions, innovations, and pioneering projects implemented by DEWA at the world’s largest single-site solar park. During a tour of DEWA's Sustainability and Innovation Centre, King Mswati and his delegation were briefed about the solar park, which is based on the independent power producer (IPP) model. By the end of 2024, the solar park’s production capacity reached 3,060 MW from photovoltaic solar panels and concentrated solar power. Clean energy currently accounts for about 20% of Dubai's total energy mix. By 2030, DEWA aims to raise the capacity of the solar park to 7,260 MW, increasing the share of clean power in Dubai’s energy mix to 34%.
