Gridora, the new infrastructure platform established by ADQ, IHC and Modon Holding, has signed its first Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Abu Dhabi Projects and Infrastructure Centre (ADPIC) for the delivery of high-impact transport infrastructure projects.
The agreement marks a key milestone in Gridora’s mission to champion the delivery of strategic infrastructure projects.
Supporting Abu Dhabi’s infrastructure projects
Through this MoU, Gridora and ADPIC will establish a framework for potential collaboration in relation to supporting the development, planning and implementation of strategic infrastructure projects within the Emirate of Abu Dhabi.
The initial focus of the MoU will be to establish a working committee to explore potential opportunities and identify pilot projects, activities and initiatives Gridora could undertake.
These would be considered from several projects ADPIC aims to deliver within the emirate, with the centre having been mandated to implement projects with an estimated value of at least AED 35 billion ($9.5 billion).
