In 2011 His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai and UN Secretary General Ban Ki-Moon launched the establishment of a local environmental economics think-tank in front of numerous dignitaries and authorities. The far-fetching vision of all involved can now be supported with a decade-long track record and numerous disruptive innovation towards fostering a low-carbon economy.

Once created to aggregate Dubai’s carbon asset, the data-centric approach used to compile Green House Gases inventories across all GCC countries has been an engine of growth and green transformation, including several MWs of installed solar capacity, the treasury of International Renewable Energy certificates (iRECs), the administrator of UNFCCC issued Certified Emission Reductions (CERs) and overall global recognition.

We are Agents of Change, leaders of green transformations in fulfilment of the Paris Accords
