Solar Power Set to Soar in the Middle East
The Middle East is poised for a significant shift towards renewable energy, with solar power expected to become the predominant source.
Although traditionally an oil and gas powerhouse, the region is shifting its focus to renewables as a response to rapid industrial growth, increasing population, and a global drive to reduce carbon emissions. Because of a relative lack of hydropower potential and low gas prices, the Middle East will continue to use gas-fired power as a primary source and eventually as a transitional fuel in the long term. Additionally, the anticipated rise in electric vehicles in the long term hints at a future spike in energy demand, making the shift towards renewable sources not just necessary but inevitable for the region’s long-term sustainability.
