G- Read the given text, then answer the questions that follow:
The UAE is currently transitioning from an electricity generation system nearly 100% powered by gas
power plants (2010) to 100% powered by nuclear, solar, and other renewables in order to
substantially reduce its carbon emissions. It is also rolling out electric vehicle charging infrastructure.
The UAE has massive solar generation potential, and its energy policy has shifted substantially due to
the declining price of solar.
It has signed an agreement with the U.S. on nuclear cooperation, and is also a signatory to the nuclear
non-proliferation treaty.
As of March, 2020, only one reactor (out of 4) in Barakah nuclear power plant is finished, and loaded
with fuel, with expected start of operation in the 2020.
Once all 4 reactors are fully operational, they will provide about 5600 MW, or about 25% of electricity
energy in United Arab Emirates.

1- Why is UAE transitioning to renewable energy resources?

2- What are the 2 main types of renewable energy resources that the UAE started using recently?

3- What is the name of the nuclear station that the UAE created to produce about 25% of all the
electricity in UAE?

4- Can you name the electric car that the UAE is encouraging people to use it in order to reduce the
use of non-renewable resources?
