On July 3rd, during his visit to China, Mohammed Hassan Al Suwaidi, UAE Minister of Investment and CEO of Abu Dhabi Holding Company, held a meeting with Zhu Gongshan, Chairman of GCL Group, in Beijing. The two sides engaged in in-depth discussions on topics such as deepening FBR granular silicon cooperation and supporting the chain-style development of the UAE's new energy industry.

Mohammed Hassan Al Suwaidi expressed his gratitude towards GCL for establishing its first overseas FBR granular silicon project in the UAE. He mentioned that the UAE's 2050 energy strategy is driving the country to seek new breakthroughs in carbon reduction. This project not only highly recognizes the potential for developing the UAE's new energy industry but also paints a magnificent new picture for the UAE's green transformation. He believes that as an international green technology enterprise, GCL has always been exploring the path of technological innovation with a chain leader mindset. He hopes that this cooperation will serve as an opportunity to leverage GCL's deep technical accumulation and extensive strategic layout in the industrial chain, combining the strengths of both parties in technology, capital, talent, and brand, to help the UAE advance the extension, supplementation, and strengthening of the photovoltaic new energy industry chain, and jointly pursue the grand cause of global green energy development.

Zhu Gongshan stated that GCL's "One Body, Two Wings" internationalization process is accelerating. With the UAE being GCL's first overseas industrial strategic base for FBR granular silicon globally, the layout is far-reaching and significant. They will do their utmost to turn it into the world's largest high-quality polysilicon R&D and manufacturing base. At the same time, they will fully leverage the advantages of being a "chain leader" in the industrial chain, innovation chain, and value chain, deeply unleash the low-carbon attributes of granular silicon technology, comprehensively empower the manufacturing and application of each link in the industrial chain, and demonstrate GCL's role in the strengthening, extension, and supplementation of the new energy industry chain in the UAE and even the Middle East region. This lays a solid foundation for future energy transition and sustainable development cooperation between the two countries.

Present at the meeting were Mohammed Abdulrahman Al Hawi, Deputy Minister of Investment of the UAE; Mohammed Kassi, Executive Director of Special Projects at Abu Dhabi Holding Company; Amir Al Habib, Director of the Office of the UAE Minister of Investment; Tao Feng, Executive Director and Senior Business Partner of GCL Group; Yang Wenzhong, Chief Financial Officer of GCL Technology; and Gu Ruoyu, Deputy Commander of the GCL Technology UAE Granular Silicon Project.
