BEEAH has signed a Joint Development Agreement (JDA) with Abu Dhabi Future Energy Company (Masdar) to identify and develop utility-scale clean energy projects in Sharjah.
The JDA was signed by Khaled Al Huraimel, Group CEO and Vice Chairman of BEEAH, and Mohamed Jameel Al Ramahi, CEO of Masdar, at the World Future Energy Summit 2026, part of Abu Dhabi Sustainability Week.
The agreement provides a framework for the companies to assess, select, and progress viable solar PV (photovoltaic) projects in the emirate.
From project screening through development, construction, operation, and maintenance, BEEAH and Masdar will collaborate on end-to-end activities, including project feasibility, grid impact assessment, solar resource assessments, and site studies.
The framework also allows scope for exploring other clean energy opportunities, such as hybrid battery energy storage systems to enhance grid resilience.
According to the statement, the signing expands on a series of existing and legacy collaborations between the two organizations, most notably the founding of the Emirates Waste to Energy Company joint venture in 2017 to develop the first utility-scale waste project in the region.

“Sharjah’s rising energy requirements are driving the deployment of more diversified, resilient renewables infrastructure across the emirate. At BEEAH, enhancing quality of life has always been central to our mission, and we have pursued this by delivering clean electricity through our commercial-scale Sharjah Waste to Energy facility. Our new JDA with Masdar strategically builds on this track record, strengthening a partnership that has already delivered a transformative energy project for the UAE. Together, we will responsibly meet this surge in power demand while accelerating Sharjah’s decarbonization through multiple utility-scale solar projects.”
Mohamed Jameel Al Ramahi, CEO of Masdar, said that, “This agreement builds on our long-standing relationship with BEEAH, including our joint development of the first commercial-scale waste-to-energy plant in the Middle East, which is helping Sharjah to achieve its environmental goals.”
“Sharjah has strong potential for solar energy development, and its visionary leadership is driving the deployment of high-quality, commercially viable projects to accelerate the emirate’s energy transformation. Masdar is proud to support Sharjah on its clean energy journey, and we look forward to working closely with BEEAH to help achieve its ambitious objectives,” Al Ramahi added.
