Feb 16, 2025

During Abu Dhabi Sustainability Week 2025 (ADSW), Masdar, a leading UAE clean energy company, announced JA SOLAR as a preferred supplier for the world’s largest integrated PV and energy storage project. This landmark initiative is the first gigawatt-scale system designed to deliver round-the-clock renewable power through a combination of solar photovoltaics and battery storage.

Located in Abu Dhabi, the project will include 5.2 GW of PV capacity and a 19 GWh battery storage system, distributed across northern and southern sites each with 2.6 GW and 9.5 GWh. Once operational, it will supply 1 GW of consistent baseload power daily, substantially cutting fossil fuel use and greenhouse gas emissions while supporting the UAE’s Net Zero 2050 Strategy. The project represents a major step toward fulfilling COP28 commitments and establishes a new global standard in renewable energy deployment.

Abdulaziz Alobaidli, Chief Operating Officer of Masdar, stated: “This record-setting project overcomes the intermittency of renewables and enables 24/7 clean power delivery. As Masdar’s most ambitious undertaking to date, we are partnering with top-tier suppliers to set a new benchmark in clean energy innovation.”

Aiqing Yang, Executive President of JA SOLAR, commented, "JA SOLAR is proud to deepen our collaboration with Masdar on this record-breaking project, which represents a monumental leap in the global clean energy transformation. As a company committed to advancing sustainable solutions, we share Masdar's vision of enabling continuous, reliable clean power. This project not only sets a new global benchmark for energy innovation but also reinforces the pivotal role of high-quality, cutting-edge technology in driving the transition to a low-carbon future. We are honored to contribute to this groundbreaking initiative and are confident that our partnership will continue to set the standard for excellence in the renewable energy sector."
