UAE - Dubai EXPO 2020 - Design and Construction Supervision Consultancy Services

In 2020, the UAE will host the Expo 2020 in Dubai, which site is located adjacent to Al Makthoum International Airport and between Abu Dhabi International Airport and Dubai International Airport. The site covers a total area of 4.38 km², and will have the capacity to accommodate up to 300,000 visitors per day and a total of 25 million visitors.

The sustainability and renewable energy mix based concepts in this project cover various aspects related to rental and/or temporary access to building roofs for installation of Solar PV panels (BIPV, BAPV) during Expo 2020 Dubai's six-month event period and most flexible concepts for renewable energy systems integrated into other projects. The portfolio of renewable energy assets considered in this project contains solar PV, Waste-to-Energy anaerobic digestion, wind energy, solar hot water, fuel cells, energy storage, solar cooling, and/or other future RE technologies, e.g. transportation concepts for e-mobility to be deployed along with a smart grid infrastructure.
