Manage episode 308031352 series 2951090
The energy transition in the Middle East is proceeding at a rapid pace. Renewable energy project contract awards in 2021 have eclipsed deals for conventional power plant projects as the region’s energy diversification agenda gathers pace, according to a new research report from MEED Insight. Middle East Energy Transition reports that there were no contract awards for oil-powered or gas-fuelled power stations in the Middle East and North Africa (Mena) region in the first half of 2021, while in the same period, there were about $2.8bn of renewable energy project contract awards in the region.
