ABU DHABI // The Minister of Energy visited the country’s nuclear power plant in Barakah on Thursday.
Suhail Al Mazrouei was updated by senior Emirati engineers on the project and a recent construction milestone.
The completion of major electrical installation work at Unit 1 represents another step in the plant’s progress from construction to commissioning.
“This approach ensures the long-term sustainability of the UAE’s peaceful nuclear energy programme,” the minister said. “Nuclear energy will play a critical role in the provision of clean and sustainable energy to power the future of the UAE and diversify the nation’s energy supply.”
