All the vital news, analysis, and commentary curated by our industry experts.
Middle East Energy Transition Market Overview
The Middle East’s power market continues to be dominated by traditional fossil fuels and this is unlikely to change for the foreseeable future. with gas based thermal power providing most of the power generation into 2035. The presence of massive oil and gas reserves and the low cost of production makes it cheaper for many countries in the region to burn fuel for power generation. As a result, the pace of adoption of renewable energy is still therefore quite slow.

Middle East Energy Transition Market, Country-wise Outlook
The renewable generation share is set to strongly increase in the run up to 2035. The United Arab Emirates will become a regional leader, with its renewable generation share exceeding more than 27% by 2035. Saudi Arabia is also expected to experience a strong growth in its renewable generation share.
Middle East Energy Transition Market, Major Sectors
Major sectors in the Middle East energy transition market are electric vehicles, renewable energy, CCS/ CCUS, and hydrogen.
Electric Vehicles: The adoption of electric vehicles as a means of reducing CO2 emissions has progressed in the region in the last few years. This progress is still heavily concentrated in the Gulf region, however.
Although the policy framework for electric vehicles is still immature, several commercial partnerships and governmental initiatives have emerged. UAE, Qatar, Oman, and Saudi Arabia now have robust plans to locally produce EVs and ambitious intentions for exports as well.
CCS/ CCUS: Given the extensive scale of oil and gas operations in the region and the need for achieving zero-emissions targets, the CCS/CCU projects are gaining more momentum. The CCS capacity in the Gulf countries currently stands at 4mtpa, representing more than 9% of the global annual capacity. CSS capacity is set to increase to 6mtpa with 13 projects expected to come online by the end of the decade.
Hydrogen: The Middle East region is situated in an advantageous position when it comes to potential hydrogen production due to its abundant gas reserves, land, and solar radiation. There are currently multiple hydrogen projects in the feasibility phase, with most of them are expected to be operational around the middle of the current decade. The hydrogen producers in the region see ammonia, transportation, and chemical as the most preferred destinations for the clean fuel. The financing landscape of hydrogen projects looks promising with active involvement from governmental agencies and national oil companies, particularly in the Gulf countries.
