Dubai's Green Hydrogen Project Revolutionizing Sustainable Mobility
Key Ideas
  • DEWA's Green Hydrogen project at the Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Solar Park has produced 90 tonnes of green hydrogen since May 2021, promoting sustainable mobility and improving energy efficiency.
  • Over 2.5 tonnes of green hydrogen have been supplied to ENOC Group’s Service Station of the Future at Expo City Dubai, reducing 40 tonnes of CO2 emissions and fueling 500 cars.
  • This project, the first of its kind in the Middle East and North Africa, supports Dubai's Green Mobility Strategy 2030, the National Hydrogen Strategy, UAE's Net Zero 2050 Strategy, and the global shift towards a green economy.
  • DEWA's collaboration with Expo 2020 Dubai and Siemens Energy has resulted in the production of 20 kg of hydrogen per hour, with the ability to store up to 12 hours of hydrogen, powering a gas motor with a 300 kW capacity.
The Green Hydrogen project initiated by Dubai Electricity and Water Authority (DEWA) at the Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Solar Park is a groundbreaking initiative driving sustainable mobility in Dubai. Since its inception in May 2021, this project has successfully generated approximately 90 tonnes of green hydrogen, primarily utilized for producing green energy. A significant portion of this hydrogen has been allocated to ENOC Group’s Service Station of the Future at Expo City Dubai, enabling the fuelling of 500 cars and reducing over 40 tonnes of CO2 emissions. This pioneering project is a testament to Dubai's commitment to sustainable practices and its transition towards cleaner energy sources. By supporting the National Hydrogen Strategy, UAE's Net Zero 2050 Strategy, and the Dubai Green Mobility Strategy 2030, the Green Hydrogen project aligns with the Emirate's strategic objectives of sustainability and environmental conservation. DEWA's emphasis on sustainable transport solutions like electric and hybrid vehicles further underscores its dedication to reducing carbon emissions in the transportation sector. By promoting green hydrogen as a viable alternative fuel, Dubai is solidifying its position as a global leader in the green economy and sustainable development. Through collaborative efforts with Expo 2020 Dubai and Siemens Energy, DEWA has established a cutting-edge facility that can produce 20 kg of hydrogen per hour, with storage capacity for up to 12 hours' worth of hydrogen. The utilization of solar energy in generating hydrogen highlights the project's eco-friendly approach, making it a pivotal step towards a greener and more efficient energy landscape.
