Awaidha Al Marar, Chairman of the Abu Dhabi Department of Energy, received His Excellency Xavier Chattel, Ambassador of France to the UAE yesterday, to discuss common goals, energy challenges and opportunities for collaboration as both countries seek to maximize energy system efficiency and the deployment of low carbon technologies to support their net zero by 2050 ambitions.
