Nuclear and coal energy for economic prosperity
Business World Philippines
|September 18, 2025
This is the second time I've seen Dubai Airport and Dubai City from the air and they continue to amaze me.
Very modern, very bright at night, attracting many visitors and investors from many countries. I have a long layover in Dubai Airport while waiting for my connecting flight to Madrid, Spain, then I will take a train to Valencia to attend a conference.
As an economics and energy researcher, I find the United Arab Emirates’ (UAE) moves in energy expansion rather bold and sensical. The share of natural gas fell from nearly 100% of total power generation, down to 68% in 2024 as the use of nuclear energy expanded significantly. From using no nuclear power until 2019, to generating 10.5 terawatt-hours (TWh) with it in 2021, and 40.6 TWh in 2024, contributing 23% of total generation last year. No other country in the world has made this big a jump in nuclear power generation in such a very short period of time.
