Ras Al Khaimah, UAE, 9 November 2021: As part of the Ras Al Khaimah Energy Efficiency and Renewables Strategy 2040, Ras Al Khaimah Municipality has invited specialised energy auditors in a bid to recruit their services for a new initiative to provide the industrial sector with best-in-class energy audits.

Making the announcement through a Press release, the Municipality said the industrial sector represents a large share of the total energy consumption in Ras Al Khaimah. The initiative is designed to support industries in Ras Al Khaimah in reducing their energy cost and their environmental footprint, the Municipality said. This is in alignment with several of the UAE’s strategies, including Operation 300bn, National Climate Change Plan of the UAE 2017-2050, UAE Energy Strategy 2050 and the recently announced strategic initiative, UAE Net Zero by 2050, the Municipality added.

The Municipality said it intends to select energy auditing companies specialised in the industrial sector, to be involved in the new initiative. The most relevant industrial areas where energy expertise is sought include cement, quarries, ceramics, glass, metal fabrication, building materials and packaging, it said.

The Municipality said it is encouraging those auditing companies that are interested, to send Expressions of Interest to eer@mun.rak.ae, with the subject-line reading as “Industrial Energy Auditing Initiative”. The Municipality said that those interested should send a company profile along with the Expression of Interest, showcasing relevant expertise. The deadline for sending, it added, is November 20, 2021.
