SirajPower wins RSA Logistics rooftop solar deal

DUBAI, March 21, 2017

RSA Logistics, a leading provider of third-party logistics in Dubai, UAE, has signed up SirajPower to deliver a solar rooftop solution for its facility in Dubai South.

A Dubai-based joint venture, SirajPower is a key provider of comprehensive turnkey net metering solutions on solar rooftops across the emirate.

The solar lease agreement between RSA Logistics and SirajPower is in line with Dubai Electricity and Water Authority’s (Dewa) Shams Dubai initiative, the new regulatory framework put in place by the Dubai government in order to encourage solar solutions across the emirate.

David Auriau, the director at SirajPower, pointed out that the first-of-a-kind project will not only help cut
energy expenditure, but also promote a green image among the public.

"Logistics companies have a key role to play in transforming Dubai into the smartest city in the world, and we sincerely thank RSA Logistics for trusting our venture and partnering with us in this initiative of building a green economy," he noted.

The initiative encourages the development of grid connected rooftop solar capacity, and complements Dubai’s efforts to diversify energy sources and reduce energy demand by 30 per cent by 2030.

Abhishek Ajay Shah, the co-founder and managing director at RSA Logistics, said: "We firmly
believe in investing in sustainable initiatives that drive down our carbon footprint and help us act
responsibly towards our environment."

"While a project of this scale is a significant step, we are confident in its long-term benefits for energy saving," remarked Shah.

"We are proud of our partnership with SirajPower and for being the first logistics company to engage in an environment-friendly project and are committed to contributing to the UAE government’s vision of making Dubai a global centre of clean energy, green economy and sustainable development," he added.-TradeArabia News Service
