The region’s newest force in sustainable solutions, X-NOOR, a joint venture between X-ELIO, a global leader in solar solutions, and DUTCO, a leader in infrastructure projects in the GCC region, has announced an agreement with 1977-established Modern Freight Company (MFC) to provide renewable energy at MFC’s Logistics Park and Logistics Centre in Dubai, for the next 20 years.
The collaboration highlights both companies’ efforts towards a greener future with a rooftop solar PV installation expected to produce around 18 GWh of energy over 20 years. Through this installation, the warehouse will be powered by 100% renewable energy, which will significantly reduce carbon dioxide consumption compared to the previous source, according to a press communique.
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.

“The partnership with X-NOOR will allow us to utilise their expertise to maximise the generation of clean energy ensuring we continue to minimise our carbon footprint and offer a net zero facility for our customers,” commented Laurance Langdon, General Manager, Modern Freight Company.
