The UAE Has Unveiled the World’s Largest Solar Power Project

The United Arab Emirates has just drastically reduced its dependence on oil to power its grid systems.

The Emirate Water and Electricity Company has founded Noor Abu Dhabi, the largest individual solar power project in the world. While some solar parks are larger, they are run by multiple companies that share a space.At a peak capacity of 1.18 gigawatts, with 3.2 million solar panels, the solar park will be the individual project with the highest output in the world.

The world’s largest individual solar park
The only solar parks larger than this one are run by several companies sharing a space. In fact, UAE’s new, enormous Noor Abu Dhabi is so large that the US’ biggest facility, the 569MW Solar Star, is small in comparison.The park will provide enough energy to power 900,000 people and will reduce Abu Dhabi’s CO2 emissions by 1 million metric tons, the UAE claims.
