ADNOC and Masdar: The New Energy Strategy of the UAE - Transition Middle East 2025#47

The United Arab Emirates is entering a new phase of its energy
evolution. In this episode, correspondent Omar Nasser reports from
Abu Dhabi and Dubai to uncover how ADNOC and Masdar are reshaping
the region’s economic and environmental future. The UAE’s largest
energy players are moving beyond their traditional roles and
building one of the most ambitious low-carbon strategies in the
Middle East.

This episode explores ADNOC’s transformation under the principle
“Maximum Energy, Minimum Emissions,” backed by a 15-billion-dollar
investment in decarbonization projects. We examine the company’s
expanding carbon-capture network, its full shift to clean grid
electricity, the development of blue ammonia at TA’ZIZ, and the
rise of green hydrogen production. These initiatives are not
symbolic — they form a measurable pathway toward a 25 percent
emissions-intensity reduction by 2030 and net-zero operations by
2045.

The story continues with Masdar, the UAE’s clean-energy flagship.
With more than 20 gigawatts of renewable capacity and plans to
reach 100 gigawatts by 2030, Masdar is building global partnerships
and spearheading the region’s hydrogen ambitions. Its urban
innovation hub, Masdar City, serves as a living testbed for
sustainable mobility, architecture, and energy systems.

Together, ADNOC and Masdar illustrate a broader national strategy:
positioning the UAE as a global centre for low-carbon technologies
while sustaining its role as a reliable energy supplier.

Transition Middle East

Transition Middle East is a data-driven podcast hosted by Omar
Nasser, a virtual information influencer based in Dubai. The series
explores how the Gulf states — the United Arab Emirates, Saudi
Arabia, Qatar, and Oman — are reshaping their economies from energy
export to innovation, technology, and sustainability.

Each episode combines economic insight, regional expertise, and
global perspective to explain how the Middle East is redefining
growth for the 21st century. From artificial intelligence and
digital infrastructure to renewable energy, hydrogen, and finance,
Transition Middle East connects the dots between policy,
investment, and innovation.

Omar Nasser brings a calm, analytical voice to complex economic
realities — explaining how strategies like Saudi Vision 2030 and
UAE Vision 2071 are driving diversification and creating new
opportunities across sectors. The podcast draws on real data and
institutional sources, including the IMF, World Bank, OPEC, IEA,
and regional development agencies, ensuring every insight is
grounded in facts, not speculation.

Listeners gain an informed view of how technology, capital, and
sustainability are transforming the Gulf into one of the world’s
most dynamic regions. Transition Middle East is not about headlines
— it’s about understanding the forces behind them.

Core Topics:

Economic diversification and the post-oil transformation
Artificial intelligence, data centers, and digital policy
Energy transition: renewables, hydrogen, and smart cities
Sovereign wealth funds and investment flows
Sustainability and the region’s green transition
Global trade routes and geopolitical strategy

From Dubai’s perspective, Transition Middle East tells a story of
progress, pragmatism, and purpose — how the region is moving from
exporting energy to exporting innovation.
