In the presence of President His Highness Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Abu Dhabi Future Energy Company PJSC – Masdar and Emirates Water and Electricity Company (EWEC) today announced the launch of the world's first large-scale 'round the clock' gigascale project, combining solar power and battery storage in Abu Dhabi.
The solar and storage project is divided into two sites—north and south—each with an equal capacity of 2.6GW of solar PV and 9.5GWh of battery storage. Announced during Abu Dhabi Sustainability Week (ADSW), the project highlights UAE's commitment to advancing clean energy and sustainable development.
The launch of the solar power and battery storage project marks a pivotal moment in the clean energy transformation, allowing renewable energy to be dispatched 24 hours a day, seven days a week, reaffirming the UAE's position as a global pioneer in renewable energy deployment.
Delivering up to 1 gigawatt of baseload power every day generated from renewable energy, the UAE's latest project will be the largest solar and battery energy storage system in the world.
The 8,000 hectare project, said to be the largest in Abu Dhabi, will be based 30 kilometres from Abu Dhabi Downtown. It is expected to accommodate 200,000 UAE citizens and occupy 45 percent of Abu Dhabi's total residential land area.
Masdar and Emirates Water and Electricity Co. (EWEC) plan to build a $6 billion, 5 GW/19 GWh solar-plus-storage project in Abu Dhabi, with operations set to start by 2027. Emirati state-owned renewable investment company Masdar is partnering with EWEC to build a giant solar and battery energy storage (BESS) facility.
EWEC has several large-scale solar projects in the region, including the 2 GW Al Dhafra solar project in Abu Dhabi. Earlier this month, it put out a request for proposals for 1.5 GW of solar.
Construction began in December 2024 and features 58 Tesla Megapack 2XL units installed at a Nucor substation within Mohave Electric Cooperative's territory. The Ameresco-owned system operates under a 20-year Storage Services Agreement (SSA) and is managed by the Arizona Electric Power.
The West Africa Container Terminal (WACT) has signed a solar lease agreement with a pan-African clean energy company to provide at least 1. 2GW hours of electricity each year over a 15-year period.
Through the Gramme 1 project, Wärtsilä and Gramme Storage 1 will support Belgium's transition toward a more sustainable, efficient, renewable energy system. Construction is now underway and the site is expected to be completed by Q2 2027.
