In talks with Samer Ayyash , Partner, MBA, CEM® Director Electrical Division
Consolidated consultants Group will be exhibiting its latest products at The Big 5 Solar in Dubai this November. We spoke to the Director, Samer Ayyash; here's what he told us as he prepares to participate to the the largest solar meeting place.
How do you find the solar market in the Middle East right now?
Middle East region is considered one of the most attractive areas for Solar Development project where it is anticipated that from now on, more than 20 Gigawatts will be installed by 2023. All of that due to the governmental policies for different countries in the region, legalization for net metering installations, cost increase of conventional energy prices (HFO and Gas) along with the drop of solar systems and technologies. Moreover, Middle east irradiation maps show that this area is the most attractive one from technical and financial perspectives.
Why would you recommend doing business in this region?
In addition to the geographical location and irradiation characteristics for the Middle East region, Middle East and Gulf region are hub for all new technologies in different trades. Moreover, the strong investment environment, existing expertise in different fields, availability of skilled professionals and labours, and fair legalization for all business activities, are considered as an edge for the region.
What are the top 3 trends in the industry according to you?
Due to ease of installation, low initial cost along with technology advancement, PV modules along with investors and solar heating system components are the most attracting trends.
What do these mean for your company?

Why is there demand for them in the Dubai/Middle East?
Dubai and Middle East region are considered as the most attractive areas within the world, which made all decision makers and leaders in those areas to take the lead and provide energy and solar plants as environmental friendly ones. In addition, cost of solar energy is very low which will help in improving the economy for different countries in the region.
