In Oman, Zawya reported that Salim Nasser Al Aufi, Minister of Energy and Minerals of Oman, issued a Ministerial Decision establishing the Oman Net Zero Center, which aims to support the Sultanate in achieving its goals of reaching zero neutrality by 2050, by developing updated strategies, monitoring the implementation of zero neutrality projects, including energy efficiency projects, and providing technical support to government and private agencies.

“The decision to establish the Oman Net Zero Center comes in implementation of the royal directives of His Majesty Sultan Haitham bin Tariq Al Said  to establish the center to take over the task of supervising and following up on zero neutrality plans and programs, which will actively contribute to the use of energy efficiency and support relevant entities to reach zero neutrality by 2050,” the minister said.

The center will play a crucial role in expediting the implementation of net-zero initiatives and supporting all sectors in achieving their objectives, as outlined in the National Net-Zero Strategy. This will be accomplished through collaboration with both government and private entities. The Center will also serve as a pivotal tool in ensuring the realization of Oman’s vision for achieving net-zero emissions by 2050, according to the report.
