Shaikh Majid drove one of the cutting edge Masdar/ Mitsubishi electric vehicles (i-MiEV) to the campus of the Masdar Institute of Science and Technology (MI) and expressed his support for sustainable transport solutions that help reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
As part of his visit to the Masdar Institute, Shaikh Majid toured the laboratories and was briefed by professors and students on the research carried out as part of their academic work.

This includes far reaching plans to ensure energy security.”

We are dedicated to achieving this vision of developing and deploying renewable energy and clean technology solutions and we view this as a great responsibility. What we have achieved so far is but the beginning of the road towards a long-term vision of placing Abu Dhabi at the forefront of the global energy sector.”
