The UAE will continue to increase investment in clean energy RD&D and innovation over the next five years, as it did under the first phase of Mission Innovation.
Within the Mission Innovation focus areas, hydrogen and high-renewable-penetration energy systems will be the primary research investment areas, aligning with the UAE’s climate, industrial, and development strategies.
The UAE also plans to substantially increase investment in CCUS, scaling up from 800,000 tons per year today (one of the few commercial-scale operations globally) to up to 5 million tons by 2030.
