UAE, Dubai: Al Habtoor Group, the largest and most respected conglomerate company in the region, announces a strategic partnership with SirajPower, the region’s leading distributed solar energy provider, to deliver large-scale solar installations across eight projects of the group in the UAE.

The UAE has declared 2023 the ‘Year of Sustainability,’ which will give an unprecedented boost to various businesses and industries to achieve the desired sustainable development. ” “A large part of UAE's success can be attributed to the cooperation of all segments of society and the sharing of knowledge and strong partnerships that have been developed with strategic allies. We at the Al Habtoor Group understand the value of sustainability and environmental responsibility, and we all have a duty to protect our natural resources so there will be enough for present and future generations,” concluded Al Habtoor. The first phase of the solar project for Habtoor Motors, comprising 2. 8 MWp of capacity, has been successfully commissioned and is now operating with clean energy. The second phase of the project, consisting of 7 additional projects, will commence soon.

This partnership also complements our efforts to align with the UAE Energy Strategy 2050, which aims to reduce the country’s dependence on fossil fuels while increasing the use of renewable energy sources throughout the country. ” “These projects are an important milestone for SirajPower, and we are committed to supporting Al Habtoor Group achieve its goals of a cleaner, greener future and in keeping with this year's theme of “Year of Sustainability” by reducing its carbon footprint and utilizing energy more sustainably. Furthermore, this partnership serves as an example for other large businesses across different industries to follow and begin their own clean energy journeys. ” “Our latest partnership illustrates the growing demand for renewable energy in the UAE and the trust that leading businesses have placed in SirajPower to provide reliable and cost-effective solutions. It is a privilege and honor for us at SirajPower to have been selected to provide clean energy solutions to Habtoor Group,” concluded Hussain.
