ZAYED ENERGY PRIZE WINNERS SELECTED

A jury of international experts, including global Presidents and Hollywood super stars has decided on the winners of the Zayed Future Energy Prize - however we’ll have to wait until the New Year to find out who they are.

The winning individuals and organisations will receive a total of US$4 million and will be announced during Abu Dhabi Sustainability Week in January.

President of the Republic of Iceland Olafur Ragnar Grimsson joined the likes of Leonardo DiCaprio on the judging panel and told ARN what makes this prize unique:

The UAE capital's economy grew 7.7% year on year in 2012. The Statistics Centre, Abu Dhabi attributes it to huge financial surpluses, strong growth in non-oil sectors and high oil prices.
Speeding taxi drivers in Dubai are set to face further controls. The RTA has installed a new system on cabs called AMAN which is a self powered sensor that monitors the vehicles.
Tens of thousands of people across the globe today are marking 'World Refugee Day', in recognition of the situation of refugees worldwide.
