The UAE and Mongolia have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to strengthen cooperation in renewable energy and green hydrogen, supporting both countries’ energy transition efforts.

The agreement between the UAE Ministry of Energy and Infrastructure and Mongolia’s Ministry of Energy covers the exchange of expertise, capacity-building programmes and opportunities to develop renewable energy projects in Mongolia.

It also seeks to encourage public-private sector cooperation on infrastructure supporting clean energy.

Under the MoU, the two sides will establish a joint working group to identify priority areas, assess the feasibility of proposed projects and oversee their development.

The agreement was signed for the UAE by Suhail Al Mazrouei, Minister of Energy and Infrastructure, and for Mongolia by Togmid Dorjkhand, Deputy Prime Minister.

The partnership aims to deepen bilateral energy ties while supporting investment, skills development and the expansion of clean energy infrastructure.

Al Mazrouei said: “The MoU reflects the UAE’s commitment to expanding its international energy partnerships and building practical cooperation with Mongolia based on its national needs and priorities. It also provides an opportunity to leverage Mongolia’s renewable energy potential in ways that contribute to energy security and sustainable economic development.”

He added: “We look forward to leveraging the UAE’s expertise in clean energy and project development, in cooperation with our Mongolian counterparts, to explore practical and scalable opportunities in renewable energy, green hydrogen, and related infrastructure. This will help address Mongolia’s development needs and support the diversification of its energy mix.”

Al Mazrouei noted that the cooperation will place a strong emphasis on exchanging knowledge and technical expertise and building capacity, while also exploring economically and technically viable investment opportunities and encouraging private-sector participation in projects that serve the priorities of both countries.  -OGN/TradeArabia News Service
