The first of four reactors at the Barakah Nuclear Energy facility is expected to be operational this year, six years after construction started in 2012, and some nine years after ENEC was founded. The launch of Barakah will herald a new era for the UAE’s energy scene as it prepares to invest Dhs600bn ($163.3bn) into a 2050 plan to boost clean energy output. Al Hammadi has played a prominent role in the region’s nuclear energy sector advances to date and will no doubt continue to be a driving force in the years to come.
