At Dubai Holding, we're deeply committed to sustainable growth beyond Dubai's borders. We actively monitor our carbon emissions, water use, and waste, and work tirelessly to reduce our environmental footprint.

Our efforts range from enhancing energy efficiency to conserving water, with an emphasis on recycling and reusing. By measuring our resource consumption in 2022, we've set clear benchmarks and set the foundations for performance improvement.

Our Decarbonisation Strategy

Dubai Holding's decarbonisation strategy is rooted in three core principles: implementability, scalability, and progressiveness, steering us towards Net Zero while bolstering our commitment to clean energy, water stewardship, and waste management. Through a strategic framework of Fundamental, Excellence, and Flagship initiatives, we customize our approach for each asset. In 2023, we proudly joined the UAE Climate Responsible Companies Pledge, aligning with elite private sector firms. This collaborative effort, led by the UAE's Ministry of Climate Change and Environment, propels us towards a net-zero economy by 2050, encouraging businesses to actively measure and reduce emissions while aligning with national climate goals.

Energy

At Dubai Holding, we are aware of the environmental impact of our energy consumption. Our assets rely mainly on electricity from the grid, such as DEWA in Dubai, and district cooling to operate. We also use fuels, such as natural gas, for our hospitality and entertainment assets, including our restaurants. To reduce our carbon footprint, we are constantly looking and for ways to enhance our energy efficiency and adopt alternative sources of energy where feasible. We have set energy reduction targets across our operations to ensure that we fulfil this responsibility.
