At the meeting, Al-Muharami was briefed on the level of completion of the project and its components, the percentage of each phase, and the quality and specifications of the materials used in the project, which are compatible with the highest internationally approved standards, in addition to the timetable for the station to launch operating and enter into service.

In turn, those in charge of the project confirmed the start of operation of 20 MW of the station within the next three days, with the station operating at full capacity within a maximum period of three months, appreciating the efforts of Al-Muharrami in easing the difficulties and his continued monitoring and following-up, whether directly or through the team in his office since launching the project.

At the end of his visit, Al-Muharami expressed thanks and gratitude to the UAE, represented by Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, for its unwavering support in the development process of the country and the capital, Aden, in particular.
