It is for the first time that the PA-CEMP certification course has been introduced to the UAE in collaboration with RECEE to equip the Pan Arab region to handle the energy crisis at hand and ensure a brighter, better future for all. Companies and organisations involved with policy making should make use of this opportunity to train their people so they can be part of this bigger movement and join forces for this common cause.”
With the UAE and the region aiming to lead the global transition into clean energy, the calculation modules and concepts have all been carefully adapted to the needs of the Arab Market to ensure maximum energy and cost saving, said the statement.
