ADNOC Distribution Partners with Emerge to Power Abu Dhabi Stations with Solar Energy, Advancing Sustainability and Operational Efficiency

Emerge has entered a 20-year solar agreement with Misk City, supporting its goal to become one of the region’s most advanced green urban communities.

• 621 kWp rooftop PV system to power part of the city
• More than 600 tons of CO₂ emissions avoided every year
• Full turnkey delivery by Emerge, including financing and long-term O&M

Driving sustainable impact through clean, future-ready infrastructure.

Emerge and Sharjah National Oil Corporation (SNOC) have inaugurated “Sana”, Sharjah’s first utility-scale solar photovoltaic (PV) plant — a 60MWp facility now powering SNOC’s Sajaa Gas Plant entirely with clean energy.

The inauguration was held in the presence of H.H. Sheikh Sultan bin Ahmed Al Qasimi, Deputy Ruler of Sharjah and President of SNOC, and H.E. Sheikh Mohammed Ahmed Al Qasimi, Vice President of SNOC.

“Sana” is one of the world’s first solar-powered gas processing plants and delivers:
• Over 56,600 tons of CO₂ offset per year
• Electricity for the equivalent of 13,780 homes
• Power to SNOC’s operations, with surplus exported to SEWA

Emerge is responsible for the entire project lifecycle under a Build–Own–Operate–Transfer (BOOT) agreement. It has successfully managed financing, design, procurement, and construction of the project, and will oversee the operation and maintenance of the solar plant for the next 25 years.

A key milestone in advancing the UAE’s net-zero ambitions — and a testament to what Emerge delivers through innovative partnerships and fully integrated solar solutions.

Proud moment for our team. Emerge has been recognised at the Middle East Solar Industry Association (MESIA) Solar Awards Ceremony 2026, celebrating solar excellence across the MENA region.

Awards won:
– MENA Solar Women of the Year: Olla Hassan
– C&I and Residential Project of the Year: ADNOC Distribution project
– Utility-Scale Solar Project of the Year: Sharjah National Oil Corporation (SNOC) project

Thank you to MESIA and to everyone who continues to trust us to deliver clean energy impact. This recognition belongs to our people and partners who bring ownership, quality, and pace to every project.

We are proud to announce that during the Global Rail Transport Infrastructure Exhibition & Conference, #Emerge has signed a Landmark Solar Power Agreement with Etihad Rail to decarbonize their Ghuweifat terminal.

This innovative project will feature a 600 kWp solar PV installation and a 2.56 MWh battery energy storage system, generating up to 85% of the terminal’s electricity consumption. By reducing carbon emissions by over 8,500 tons, we are taking a significant step towards more sustainable infrastructure development in the region.

The agreement was signed by Ahmed AlYafei, CEO of Etihad Rail Infrastructure and Abdulaziz Alobaidli, Chairman of Emerge and COO Masdar (Abu Dhabi Future Energy Company), and witnessed by His Excellency Shadi Malak, CEO of Etihad Rail, Mohamed Jameel Al Ramahi, CEO of Masdar, and Luc Koechlin, CEO EDF Middle East.

#Emerge is thrilled to announce that we have won three prestigious awards at the 2nd Edition of The Solar Week UAE Leadership Awards 2024!

Congratulations to:
🏆 Outstanding Leadership in Business Management: Michel Abi Saab, General Manager
🏆 Best Solar Project of the Year for ADNOC Group Service Stations project
🏆 Project of the Year: Renewable Energy for Sharjah National Oil Corporation (SNOC) project

We are incredibly proud of Michel Abi Saab General Manager and the entire Emerge team. These awards are a testament to reflect our team’s expertise and our company’s dedication to sustainable energy solutions. From outstanding leadership to our commitment to our projects, we are making a positive impact on the industry and the planet.

We are proud to announce that #Emerge, in partnership with Sharjah National Oil Corporation (SNOC), has officially broken ground on the largest solar PV plant in the Emirate of Sharjah!

This landmark 60MWp solar PV plant, located at SNOC’s Sajaa Gas Complex, will generate enough clean energy to offset 66,000 tons of CO2 emissions annually, contributing to a more sustainable future for the region.

This project aligns perfectly with both SNOC’s commitment to decarbonization and the UAE’s ambitious Net-Zero 2050 strategy. By promoting renewable energy sources, this initiative represents a major step forward in the UAE’s transition towards a more sustainable future.
