据钻井地带网站2023年7月4日报道，作为到2050年前实现净零排放努力的一部分，阿拉伯联合酋长国计划在未来7年里向可再生能源投资540亿美元。

阿联酋总理兼迪拜酋长Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid在推特上表示，阿联酋的目标是在此期间将产自可再生资源的能源份额增加两倍，并将重点关注氢气作为清洁能源的来源。

在这个计划出台之际，阿联酋将在今年晚些时候主办COP28气候峰会。与许多石油生产国一样，目前阿联酋的化石燃料在经济中的重要性超过了推动更清洁能源系统的努力。尽管如此，阿联酋是第一个宣布到本世纪中叶前实现净零排放目标的中东国家。

作为周一公布举措的一部分，Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid任命Mohamed Hassan Alsuwaidi为阿联酋投资部部长。Alsuwaidi目前是阿布扎比主权财富基金ADQ的首席执行官和可再生能源公司马斯达尔的副董事长。

阿联酋政府还批准了一项决定，成立一个金融稳定委员会，以监测风险，帮助应对潜在的金融危机，并制定预防措施，以保护国家的经济和金融体系。

UAE Plans to Invest $54B in Renewables in Net Zero Push

The United Arab Emirates plans to invest as much as $54 billion on renewables over the next seven years as part of efforts to reach net zero emissions by 2050. 

The nation is targeting a threefold increase in the share of energy produced from renewable sources over the period and will focus on hydrogen as a source for clean power, UAE Prime Minister and Dubai Ruler Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid said in a tweet.

The plans come as the UAE is set to host the COP28 climate summit later this year. Like many oil-producing nations, the push toward a cleaner energy system is currently outweighed by the importance of fossil fuels in the economy. Still, the UAE was the first Middle Eastern state to announce a goal to reach net zero by the middle of the century.

As part of the moves unveiled on Monday, Sheikh Mohammed appointed Mohamed Hassan Alsuwaidi as investment minister. Alsuwaidi is currently the chief executive officer at Abu Dhabi wealth fund ADQ and deputy chairman of renewables company Masdar. 

The government also approved a decision to establish a council for financial stability to monitor risk, help deal with potential financial crises and draw precautionary measures to protect the country’s economic and financial system.
