Brasilia [Brazil], March 31 (ANI/WAM): The United Arab Emirates has reaffirmed its commitment to advancing the global energy transition and strengthening international cooperation to ensure energy security, underscoring its position as a reliable strategic partner in this vital sector.

The pledge came during the participation of the UAE Ministry of Energy and Infrastructure in the Second Meeting of BRICS Committee of Senior Energy Officials, held in Brasilia, with the presence of high-level representatives from member states.

The meeting focused on achieving a balance between energy security and sustainable development, while promoting a shift towards a low-carbon future.

Participants highlighted the UAE's pioneering role in ensuring global energy supply security and its leading position in energy transition, hydrogen, and its derivatives.

The UAE Ministry of Energy and Infrastructure presented the country's accomplishments in the energy sector, including global leadership in universal access to electricity and clean cooking fuels, investments in renewable and clean energy projects, and improved energy efficiency. These achievements reflect the UAE's dedication to fulfilling the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 7.
