SirajPower, the UAE-based renewable energy company, has launched its first solar carport producing green energy and installed at Hepworth facilities in Dubai Industrial Park (DIP)

The carport aims to generate 100,000kWh green electricity per year.

According to SirajPower, it is set to save more than 70 mt of CO2 from entering the atmosphere, which is the equivalent of 1,169 tree seedlings grown for 10 years.

Commenting on the launch, Laurent Longuet, CEO at SirajPower, said that the solar carport solution that can be applied to thousands of car parking areas across the UAE.

?This development is in line with DEWA?s Shams initiative and the UAE?s efforts to reduce its carbon footprint and increase the proportion of solar energy,? Longuet added.

In 2018, DEWA commissioned a solar carport project that has been rolled out at its headquarters and at the UAE Ministry of Climate Change and Environment (MOCCE) building. The carport project was launched as part of Shams Dubai, DEWA?s solar energy strategy which encourages homeowners and businesses to install solar panels and link them up to DEWA's clean electricity grid.

Witnessing a growing demand from businesses to use sustainable technologies in their premises to generate clean energy, SirajPower further aims to encourage the adoption of solar carport across the UAE.
