Abu Dhabi New Energy Exhibition 2025 – Abu Dhabi Solar Energy Exhibition WFES

Since its first event in 2008, the World Future Energy Summit (WFES), a globally recognized flagship event in the field of renewable energy and sustainable development, has rapidly emerged in the Middle East and North Africa, becoming the largest and most influential event in the field of renewable energy and sustainable development. the Middle East and North Africa. The premier platform for international exchange. WFES is carefully planned by Masdar, the flagship of future energy investments in the UAE, with the aim of accelerating the future global energy transformation, promoting the improvement of energy efficiency, promoting innovative applications of clean technologies and renewable energy, and building a bridge connecting sustainable development technologies and businesses. opportunities.

Under the visionary leadership of HH General Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Supreme Ruler of the UAE, and with the strong support of the UAE government, the Abu Dhabi Water and Electricity Authority (ADWEA), the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) and other authoritative international organizations, WFES holds an annual edition. It made its brilliant debut at the Abu Dhabi International Exhibition Centre in January. As the highlight of Abu Dhabi Sustainable Development Week (ADSW), it has attracted global attention. As a major event in the field of renewable energy in the Middle East and North Africa, WFES brings together government leaders, policymakers, industry elites, investment giants, academics and media elites from around the world with its unique charm to discuss current and future energy. To conduct in-depth discussions on opportunities and promote international cooperation in the field of renewable energy to new heights in multiple dimensions such as business, politics and economy.
