The project combines 400 MW of solar photovoltaic capacity with 1. 3 GWh of energy storage, forming the world's largest 100% renewable PV-plus-ESS microgrid. Operating stably for over 21 months, the system has already delivered more than 1 billion kilowatt-hours of clean electricity. . According to Dubai Clean Energy Strategy 2050 and Dubai Net Zero Carbon Emissions Strategy 2050, which aim to produce 100% of Dubai's total power capacity from clean energy sources by 2050, the decision is in lines with Nation's goal of Green national economy. Leading this transformation is Huawei, which continues to expand its grid-forming energy storage strategy with new global deployments. . Huawei has recently signed the contract with SEPCOIII at Global Digital Power Summit 2021 in Dubai for a 1300 MWh off-grid battery energy storage system (BESS) project in Saudi Arabia, currently the world's largest of its kind. As the world prioritizes carbon neutrality and post-pandemic recovery, the summit aimed to inspire collective action towards building a low-carbon and. .
