Dubai, the largest emirate of the United Arab Emirates, recently announced that it intends to reduce carbon emissions by 30% by 2030, further promoting the realization of carbon neutrality goals.

Saeed Al Tayer, Deputy Chairman of Dubai's Supreme Energy Council, said the latest strategy echoes the UAE's announced 2050 net zero target strategy.

Dubai has previously said it plans to restructure its energy mix to 25% solar, 7% nuclear, 7% clean coal and 61% natural gas by 2030. According to the latest carbon reduction strategy, Dubai will take a number of measures to reduce carbon emissions, including promoting the diversification of the power mix, weaning off the dependence on natural gas, and large-scale development of renewable energy projects, especially solar projects.

Dubai's main public utility company, Dubai Water and Electricity Authority, said it plans to connect the Mohammedbin Rashid Al-Maktoum Solar Park with a total installed capacity of 5 million kilowatts to the grid by 2030 to increase the proportion of clean electricity used.
