A number of experts and specialists called for the necessity of exploiting renewable energies represented by solar energy, which has become a basic requirement and a global trend, given that it has many advantages, as it is low costs and environmentally friendly, stressing that Qatar is proactive in moving towards diversification of energy sources, and the direction of energy Clean and renewable, and increased investments in it, the most prominent of which was the “Al-Kharsaah” solar energy plant project, which was used to generate electricity and cool the eight stadiums during the 2022 World Cup… They told Qatari media that Qatar National Vision 2030 must be supported through Increasing executable initiatives and projects in the solar energy sector, pointing to the need to expand the use of solar energy available throughout the year, and to use it to generate electric energy for homes, farms and estates, so that it is applied in lighting, as well as the operation of refrigerators and some simple electrical appliances, which saves money And exorbitant costs as a result of electricity bills… They pointed out the need to take serious steps to operate the wheel of clean energy in the country, by working to involve the private sector in the direction of solar energy, which reduces spending on electricity supplies, noting that the matter needs to conduct successful studies and experiments. It would encourage and motivate entrepreneurs to turn to solar energy, in addition to the importance of shifting towards innovation in the field of solar energy, especially since clean energy is the future. Dr.. Fahd Al-Jamali: Intensifying awareness of renewable energy Dr. Fahd Al-Jamali – academic and professor at Qatar University, said that the use of solar energy is one of the vital projects and good investments on which the future will depend, in addition to that it has a high-level application, as solar energy technologies convert sunlight into Electricity and heat, which is more sustainable and non-polluting to the environment compared to the combustion of fossil fuels… He pointed out the keenness of the State of Qatar to move towards renewable energy, especially with the abundance of solar radiation in Qatar, which makes it the ideal place to develop solar energy and exploit it properly, by By investing in it, we will reduce carbon emissions and then contribute to limiting climate change, noting the importance of increasing the tendency to rely on solar energy, especially with regard to private sector companies and home lighting, by laying the foundations and providing all requirements of solar panels and others, even if Simple scope to encourage its use. And see d. Al-Jamali said that the expansion of the use of solar energy needs a party or management that adopts it and encourages and motivates companies and individuals to go to it, so that this party includes participation from several parties and institutions related to the subject, pointing to the importance of also laying the initial foundations by intensifying and instilling awareness of the importance of orientation and energy use Renewable energy, especially solar energy, and working to apply it at all levels, even at the level of lighting homes, gardens, farms and camps… He explained that the use of solar energy has many advantages as it is affordable and environmentally friendly, noting that an exhibition can be held in which some specialized companies participate. Or those interested in this field, to display their solar panel products and the various modern technologies used, to see the possibility of applying or generalizing the use of solar energy in the Qatari society, especially since it is one of the important and inevitably upcoming projects.
Dr.. Muhammad Al-Kuwari: Its use must be expanded Dr. Muhammad Saif Al-Kuwari confirmed that Qatar is proactive in moving towards clean and renewable energy, paying attention to it, and increasing investments in it, the most prominent of which was the “Al-Kharsa’a” solar energy plant project, which was used to generate electricity and cool the eight stadiums. He pointed out that from this standpoint, the 2022 World Cup was named the first carbon-neutral World Cup in the history of the World Cup, which represented a major achievement that would help achieve the goals of preserving the environment in Qatar, the region and the world, which was praised by many environmental scientists. He pointed out that the station has a lot of effort, as well as within Qatar Energy’s strategy to establish other stations in Mesaieed, stressing the need to encourage the private sector to establish several solar energy stations… He continued, saying: I send a message to the private sector and major companies, that it is time to fully operate Or partially, so that it is relied upon to operate the factories, especially since the sun is available in Qatar all year round, and this clean energy must be expanded, and its use is not limited to lighting, but rather we have large factories that can benefit from it, especially since technology has now become easy And available. He explained that Qatar has many proactive matters and is keen to diversify its energy sources, as it has the most important renewable energy sources represented in solar energy, pointing to the need to expand the use of solar energy in homes, so that it is applied in lighting, as well as the operation of refrigerators and some simple electrical appliances. … He added, saying: Some neighboring countries have set up this experience and it has already succeeded, especially since it has many advantages and benefits, on the grounds that its costs are low and environmentally friendly, and therefore a program must be created so that there is cooperation between government agencies, individuals and owners of small companies, to expand In the use of solar energy, so that his support and supervision is for the government. Jaber Al-Marri: Involving the private sector Mr. Jaber Al-Marri, a businessman, explained that the use of solar energy in the Qatari market is expected to expand significantly in the coming years, due to the large demand for electricity and companies’ orientation towards renewable and clean energy as alternative and environmentally friendly sources, pointing to the necessity The concerned authorities, represented by the Ministry of Energy, direct the owners of companies from the private sector to use solar energy, especially since it has certain mechanisms and technology, as well as weather factors have a role… He stressed that some businessmen and owners of companies are ready to use solar energy to operate and light factories And relying on it fully, noting that the matter needs to conduct successful studies and experiments that will encourage and motivate entrepreneurs to turn to solar energy… He continued, saying: There are many experiences of countries that have succeeded in expanding the use of solar energy, such as China, so we hope to make theses and field visits To look at these pioneering experiences and benefit from them, and work to involve the private sector in the field of solar energy, especially in emerging markets, especially since clean energy is the future, and the private sector should contribute and direct towards it, but after conducting studies to see successful experiences. Mohsen Al-Sheikh: Transformation towards innovation in the field of energy The inventor, Mohsen Al-Sheikh, noted the importance of the global focus on sustainable energy, and the shift towards innovation in the field of solar energy, indicating that all his innovations are related to the environment, so that they are environmentally friendly and use one of the types of renewable energies, and that Based on his studies, since he studied environmental sciences at a university in Britain… He pointed out that one of his inventions is the oxy device, which has one of its advantages being environmentally friendly, as it reduces the rate of water vapor leaving the tank and thus maintains the reduction of waste in consumption Water and electricity together, with the possibility of working with solar energy, and ease of installation and operation. He explained that despite the many advantages of using solar energy, it has some problems that must be resolved, as it depends largely on the weather, indicating that the innovator is just as keen on making inventions and ideas that benefit society and has a relationship with technology, he also tries to rely on the use of energy. clean, especially as it searches for all methods and innovations that are environmentally friendly, low cost and can be used continuously, and these are the most prominent advantages of using renewable energy such as solar energy.
