The 103.5-megawatt (MW) landmark project will introduce cost-effective, large-scale, utility wind power to the UAE's electricity grid, further diversifying the country's energy mix and advancing its energy transition.
The project leverages advances in technology, material science and aerodynamics to capture low wind speeds at utility scale, paving the way for further projects. The UAE Wind Program is expected to power more than 23,000 UAE homes a year.
The project is also creating a foundation of critical scientific wind data, which will form the basis of the UAE's next phase of development.
The other wind farm locations include Delma Island (27MW), and Al Sila in Abu Dhabi (27MW), as well as Al Halah in Fujairah (4.5MW). Previously, wind energy was not viable at utility scale due to low wind speeds in the UAE, but innovations within climate technology and UAE-led expertise have made power generation using wind possible.
