Initiatives
As the world faces the urgent challenge of meeting net-zero targets and transforming the global energy landscape, Dii Desert Energy remains at the forefront of innovation and energy transition, committed to a future free of harmful emissions for future generations.
Under the umbrella of Desertec 3.0, we have launched transformative initiatives such as the MENA Hydrogen Alliance in 2019 and the Zero Emissions Traders Alliance (ZETA) in 2023, each addressing critical aspects of the evolving energy landscape.
We act ahead of the curve by recognizing emerging trends. As a leading energy transition think thank, we elaborate industry-leading reports that offer actionable insights and strategies for overcoming challenges and building a thriving low-emission economy.
In support of this mission, we established tools like the ‘Renewables and Hydrogen Project Database’ and the ‘Dii Toolkits Initiative’, fostering knowledge-sharing and project acceleration.
What sets Dii Desert Energy apart is the unparalleled strength and diversity of our industry network. Over 126 companies, spanning innovative startups to global leaders, collaborate within our ecosystem, representing various market segments and geographies across the energy value chain.
Through our initiatives, we play a pivotal role in shaping tomorrow’s clean energy systems, addressing climate change, and generating socio-economic benefits across the MENA region. Dii Desert Energy is dedicated to ensuring the energy transition serves the environment and communities worldwide.
