Masdar has done significant work in the field of alternative and renewable energy in Azerbaijan. The company implemented the Garadagh solar power plant project, and this is one of the significant projects for Azerbaijan's energy supply," he said.

He emphasized that the signing of 14 documents during the recent visit of UAE President Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan to Azerbaijan will give new impetus to the expansion of ties between the countries.
