Dubai – Sharikat Mubasher: X-NOOR for sustainable solutions, a joint venture between X-ELIO, a global leader in solar solutions, and DUTCO, a leader in infrastructure projects in the GCC region, announced reaching an agreement with Modern Freight Company (MFC), one of the key players in Dubai’s logistics industry, to provide renewable energy at MFC’s Logistics Park and Logistics Center in Dubai, for the next 20 years.

The collaboration highlights both company’s efforts toward a greener future with a rooftop solar PV installation expected to produce around 18 GWh of energy over 20 years, according to a recent joint press release.

Through this installation, the warehouse will be powered by 100% renewable energy, which will significantly reduce CO2 emissions compared to the previous source.

Jesús Gutiérrez, the General Manager of X-NOOR, said of the company’s expansion efforts, “We are thrilled to expand our operations and bring our innovative solar solutions to more projects across the region. We look forward to forging new partnerships and contributing to the region’s renewable energy goals with the same passion and dedication that has driven our success in the Middle East.”

Meanwhile, Laurance Langdon, General Manager of Modern Freight Company emphasized: “At MFC, we recognize the importance of adopting sustainable and environmentally friendly business practices. The partnership with X-NOOR will allow us to utilize their expertise to maximize the generation of clean energy ensuring we continue to minimize our carbon footprint and offer a net zero facility for our customers.”

X-NOOR is an innovative solar developer with offices in Riyadh, Dubai, and Abu Dhabi and ongoing operations in Oman and Bahrain. With its commitment to ensuring the highest level of international and regional standards, the renowned solar developer is implementing sustainable solutions to harness the region’s abundance of solar power.

Founded in 1977, MFC is deemed one of the UAE’s most trusted logistics companies, excelling in warehousing, international freight forwarding, and customs clearance. Strategically positioned next to Jebel Ali port berths, MFC’s warehouses offer not just convenience, but also the highest standards in sustainability.

Notably, this new project reflects the shared commitment of X-NOOR and MFC to lead the way towards a more sustainable future in Dubai’s logistics industry.
