The Global Manufacturing and Industrialisation Summit (GMIS) and the Emirates Nuclear Energy Corporation (Enec) have partnered together to promote sustainable industrial growth and advanced energy innovations.
Enec will participate in the fourth edition of the Global Manufacturing and Industrialisation Summit which is scheduled to be held at EXPO’s Dubai Exhibition Centre from November 22-27. The partnership will focus on encouraging the adoption of green manufacturing practices, particularly the use of clean electricity sources such as nuclear energy, to accelerate sustainable industrial development in the UAE and across the world.
“As a regional pioneer in nuclear energy generation, Enec is committed to driving the UAE’s clean energy transition, reducing its carbon footprint and enabling economic diversification in the UAE,” said Mohamed Ibrahim Al Hammadi, Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer of Enec.
“Through the delivery of the UAE Peaceful Nuclear Energy Program, we are pursuing clean energy technologies, and enhancing local and international partnerships and knowledge-sharing initiatives. We are delighted to partner with #GMIS2021 to highlight how critical clean electricity will be for the future of sustainable manufacturing and economic transformation, as demand for clean energy certification schemes increases as industry looks to demonstrate their green credentials.”
Badr Al-Olama, Head of the GMIS Organising Committee said: “Since its inception, Enec has been committed to delivering safe, clean, reliable and efficient electricity, all of which are important steps towards decarbonising the manufacturing industry and shaping sustainable manufacturing practices.
“We are pleased to welcome Enec as a partner to #GMIS2021 and look forward to exploring innovative technologies that can further promote and contribute to a cleaner and more sustainable world for societies and communities locally, and around the world.”
Clean energy transition and sustainable development are at the centre of the discussions at #GMIS2021, which will highlight how the evolving forms of interaction between and among humans and machines, driven by technologies such as Artificial Intelligence, Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), Cloud Computing, and the fifth generation of wireless network technology (5G), are driving the future of manufacturing.
The Summit will hold sessions on green manufacturing practices, pathways to achieve net-zero emissions, the future of renewable energy, and the drive towards green investments. #GMIS2021 will also host a dedicated session to highlight the UAE’s recently launched industrial strategy, ‘Operation 300bn’, and its importance in transforming the nation into a diversified, industrial economy over the next decade.
The six-day GMIS Week will feature over 125 global speakers, including the two-day #GMIS2021 Summit on November 22-23, a Global Prosperity Conference and an Alternative & Renewable Energy Conference on November 24, and country focused sessions in partnership with the UK, Australia, and Italy. The event will also run a six-day manufacturing and advanced technology exhibition to showcase some of the UAE’s most innovative capabilities. – TradeArabia News Service
