The move will leverage both partners’ strengths to accelerate the journey to Net Zero, with technology and research co-creation opportunities, knowledge transfer, development of local capabilities, as well as employment opportunities.

On the sidelines of Abu Dhabi International Petroleum Exhibition and Conference (ADIPEC) 2022, Khalifa University and Siemens Energy signed a “teaming agreement” providing a dedicated location for the Innovation Centre at the university’s campus located near the Maqta Bridge, which connects Abu Dhabi Island to the mainland.

Khalifa University provides a world-class faculty and state-of-the-art research facilities, enabling the Innovation Centre’s work on co-creating decarbonisation technologies in the areas of Power-to-X, Decarbonised Heat and Industrial Processes, Condition-based Service Interventions, Energy Storage and Fuel Cells, and Blockchain for Energy applications, among others.

Commenting on the agreement, Dr. Al Hammadi said, “The hosting of Siemens Energy’s Abu Dhabi Innovation Centre at our Sas Al Nakhl Campus reflects further strengthening of our long-standing legacy collaboration with Siemens Energy since 2011, especially in innovation, research and academics. We believe the Abu Dhabi Innovation Centre that will offer access to Siemens Energy’s global technology hubs infrastructure will also pave the way for productive collaborative outcomes in energy storage, fuel cells, blockchain and industrial processes, as well as human capital development for the UAE.”
