This must be how they have access to utra-low- cost energy
Yes, the UAE has a significant and growing surplus of power, estimated to be around 50% as of April 2025, driven by substantial investments in large-scale solar and nuclear projects that outpace the growth of electricity consumption. This growing capacity is allowing the UAE to pursue plans to export clean energy to neighboring countries via interconnected power grids and subsea cables, aiming to become a hub for renewable energy and a post-carbon economy.
