The United Arab Emirates and the United Kingdom have a global leadership opportunity in developing clean hydrogen, through a broad collaboration involving policy, innovation, trade, and investment, according to a new report launched today.

The ‘Global Alliance on Green Economy’ aims to build a coalition of countries, prioritising a green economy in the context of climate action and sustainable development, to enhance the capacity of developing countries, provide support for their green economy transition projects and exchange knowledge on implementation.

The world is at a crucial turning point where, if meaningful action is not aggressively pursued, climate change will have devastating consequences for the survival of the planet and the human race. Though concrete steps have been taken in the last few years to combat these adverse effects, this challenge requires expanded initiatives, strengthening international cooperation, and accelerating the pace of climate action.

The WGEO-UNFCCC Regional Collaboration Center (RCC) for the Middle East, North Africa (MENA) and South Asia have is conducting several activities, which are facilitating the implementation of the climate action agenda.

The World Green Economy Organisation (WGEO) hosted a Ministerial Roundtable on Green Economy during the MENA Climate Week 2022, where ministers and senior officials from various regional countries discussed ways to advance the transition towards a green economy and the role of governments in accelerating their transition as well.

Countries must take a measured approach to replace traditional fuels or risk plunging themselves into energy poverty, said Dr Sultan Al Jaber, UAE’s Minister of Industry and Advanced Technology and special envoy for climate change.

A new research paper will explore potential green hydrogen collaborations between the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and the United Kingdom (UK). This comes as part of a joint commitment between the World Green Economy Organisation (WGEO), a Dubai-based international platform that drives coalitions to enable green economic growth, and Zest Associates.
