Dubai’s energy utility, DEWA, shared an update on its solar project, confirming that the concentrated solar power (CSP) section of its fourth development phase now produces 700 megawatts. This output, managed under a single operator, has been acknowledged as the largest of its kind globally. The recognition was presented during a formal gathering, where DEWA officials received a certificate from a Guinness World Records representative.

The CSP plant is part of the broader 950MW fourth phase of the solar park. This phase uses a mix of three clean energy technologies. It includes 600MW from a CSP parabolic basin system, 100MW from a CSP solar tower, and 250MW from photovoltaic (PV) solar panels. The CSP tower is recorded at 263.126 metres and has already been certified as the tallest of its kind. The plant also has a thermal energy storage system with a capacity of 5,907 megawatt-hours, one of the largest of its kind using molten salt.

The Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Solar Park is one of the largest renewable energy complexes in a single location. It supports the wider UAE strategy of increasing clean energy use. The plant’s mixed-technology system allows energy to be generated and stored for use even when the sun is not shining.

Alongside this development, Dubai has also launched smaller renewable energy initiatives. For instance, Dubai’s Municipality has implemented rooftop solar installations on several of its government buildings, contributing around 1.4MW to the grid. Additionally, the Dubai Silicon Oasis Authority operates a microgrid solar pilot system with battery storage that supplies 0.5MW to its facilities.

Furthermore, the Sustainable City in Dubai, a residential project focused on low-emission living, produces about 10MW of power through solar rooftops distributed across residential units and shared infrastructure.
