About Masdar City

Masdar City is a flagship project of Abu Dhabi and is the first planned sustainable city in the world. It aims to be a commercially viable development with the lowest environmental impact. The master plan of the mixed-use community includes residential areas, parks, neighbourhood amenities, plazas and employment-generating land uses. The area is already home to the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA), among many other global companies.

Masdar City is built by Masdar, a subsidiary of the Mubadala Development Company, while the majority of seed capital (AED 55B (USD 15B)) comes from the Government of Abu Dhabi. The construction of Masdar City started in 2008 with the projected completion by 2030. In 2021, it was named the most sustainable city in the world by Cityscape Intelligence as the urban development focuses on making the environment greener and cleaner with the following features:

  1. Compared to ASHRAE standards, the buildings in Masdar City consume 40% less water and energy.
  2. Almost 1.5 gigawatts of clean energy are under development or in operation.
  3. The walls of the buildings are designed with the help of cushions of air to limit heat-radiation which helps reduce the demand for AC by 55% and also establishes a naturally cooler environment (nearly 10°C less than in the rest of the emirate).
  4. A total number of 87,777 solar panels power the entire Masdar City.
  5. Motion sensors installed in all real estate units allow users to minimize the consumption of electricity and water by almost 50%.

Primarily, Masdar City was planned to be a car-free, zero-carbon and sustainable city. However, due to certain challenges during the initial construction, it has been decided to make it just low-carbon. The main goal of the upcoming project is to promote sustainable living through the real-world solutions in mobility, reduction of waste as well as energy and water efficiency.

The walkable environment of Masdar City provides an array of cleantech transit options. These include:

  • Personal Transit Transport with a driverless mode of movement.
  • The NAVYA Autonom Shuttle has a capacity of transporting up to 12 people at one time.
  • Circ e-scooters.
