Welcome to Middle East Renewable Energy

Welcome to my blog.... Over the past few years it has become much more evident that climate change is indeed occurring and most of the scientific evidence points toward the raise in CO2 emissions due to human activities as the main reason for this raise.

Add to that, everybody acknowledges the finite nature of our fossil fuels, and despite the contradictions and views on how much reserve remains the fact is that it will run out sooner or later.... This alone emphasis the importance of preserving our fossil fuel (hydrocarbons) for use in applications that only they can fulfill rather than burning them as fuels. 

While preservation is important, many scientists believe that the sever impacts of climate change could well occur long before fossil fuels actually run out.

However, perhaps the biggest dangers from fossil fuels lay in how heavy dependent we have become on them for our Electricity, Water, Food, accommodation, transport, health .....etc. 

For these reasons, I have have always had a keen interest into the subject of Renewable Energy. I strongly believe that how we source our future energy is one of the biggest challenges facing humanity in this age and will a big factor in the long term prosperity of humanity.

Most of the Middle East is blessed with an abundance of these fossil fuels comprising the largest known fossil fuel reserves the world. The Middle East has enough energy to supply its own needs and export to the rest of the world.

Moreover, the region has abundant access to the original source of all energy on Earth "the Sun".

With wealth generated by fossil fuel and the availability of abundant sunlight this region has a unique opportunity to take advantage and look towards building a better future by supplying the world with energy long after the end of fossil fuels.

On this blog I hope to keep track of Renewable Energy developments with specific focus on the Middle East and the GCC. I hope you join me and look forward to your feedback.
