hore wind energy in the UAE is still in its infancy. The first and up to today single wind turbine in the UAE started producing ele tricity in 2008 on Sir Bani Yas Island in Abu Dhabi. The turb ne is 65 m tall and has a capacity of 850 kilowatts. In 2021, Dubai Electricity and Water Authority (DEWA) preliminary identi
