The energy sector accounts for over 40% of all man-made greenhouse-gas (GHG) emissions, the manufacturing sector is closely behind at over 20%. As the UAE, Saudi Arabia and other GCC countries aim to achieve Net Zero goals in line with global sustainability and decarbonization vision, the region’s energy and manufacturing sectors have a critical role to play in driving the decarbonization agenda. However, the lack of adequate know-how, technological capabilities and a sense of urgency can pose severe challenges and hinder the region’s vision at achieving Net Zero.

The launch edition of the Decarbonization in the Energy and Manufacturing Conference, taking place from 19-20 June 2023 in Abu Dhabi, UAE  will address challenges, strategies, road-map and solutions for the GCC region to transition to a low carbon economy. This initiative will bring international case studies, best practices, and showcase innovative emerging technologies for reducing carbon emissions.
