The Abu Dhabi government is fast-tracking its push to extensively tap into China’s technologies, from renewable energy and electric vehicles (EVs) to robotics, as it pursues a greener economy, according to its energy chief.
Abdulla Humaid Al Jarwan, chairman of the Abu Dhabi department of energy, told the SCMP that his department was in talks with 22 Chinese firms, including Contemporary Amperex Technology Ltd (CATL), during a recent visit to Shanghai, and expected a deepened tie-up with China’s industry leaders to facilitate infrastructure development in Abu Dhabi, the capital of the United Arab Emirates (UAE).
“What we have seen here is amazing,” said the chairman. “They are ready to develop the right solution for Abu Dhabi, and this is what we want to achieve.”

Al Jarwan added that Abu Dhabi authorities would provide highly efficient logistics and policy support to the Chinese firms to accelerate the pace of construction amid growing demand for renewable energy due to booming artificial intelligence (AI) development.
It took six weeks to complete an ultra-fast EV charging station in Abu Dhabi, according to the chairman, an example of a synergy between the UAE’s efficiency and the Chinese speed of production.

Al Jarwan was in Shanghai last week to attend the 18th Shanghai International Water Exhibition.
