The membership will allow ACWA Power to benefit from IEEJ’s experience in analysing energy problems and providing data-led solutions.

Marco Arcelli, CEO of ACWA Power, said, “We're incredibly excited about our new status as a full member of the IEEJ. By leveraging this membership, ACWA Power is well-positioned to actively engage in the advancement of green energy technologies, thereby accelerating the transition towards a more sustainable and renewable energy future.”

The IEEJ was founded in 1966 in Japan to conduct research in an effort to support the healthy growth of the country’s energy-consuming and energy-supplying industries, and to enhance of the quality of life for citizens by providing the fundamental data, information, and reports required for policymaking.

IEEJ has since broadened the range of topics it covers, including geopolitical and environmental challenges, including energy studies related to the Middle East.
