RAS AL KHAIMAH, (UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News / WAM – 14th Sep, 2026) ZAKH Renewable Energy and Engineering Manufacturing has inaugurated its solar panel and Building Integrated Photovoltaics (BIPV) manufacturing facility in Ras Al Khaimah Economic Zone (RAKEZ). The facility aims to cater to markets across the UAE, the wider region, and beyond.
Set on a 30,000 m² plot in Al Ghail Industrial Zone, the factory manufactures solar panels and custom BIPV façade solutions. It currently boasts an annual production capacity of 600 MW of solar panels and up to 500,000 m² of BIPV façade solutions.
Ramy Jallad, CEO of RAKEZ Group, expressed satisfaction:
“ZAKH’s facility brings specialised renewable energy manufacturing capabilities to Ras Al Khaimah’s burgeoning industrial scene. As the demand for clean energy solutions continues to surge across the region, building local production capacity creates opportunities to bolster supply chains, enhance industrial prowess, and serve expanding regional and international markets.”
Marina Strateva, Chief Operating Officer of ZAKH, shared her enthusiasm:
“Establishing our manufacturing facility in Ras Al Khaimah marks a significant milestone in ZAKH’s growth journey. From this strategic base, we aim to deliver high-quality solar panels and tailored BIPV façade solutions to meet the evolving needs of clients across the UAE, GCC, and international markets. RAKEZ has provided the ideal infrastructure and business environment to support our manufacturing aspirations, and we look forward to expanding our capabilities and contributing to the region’s transition towards cleaner, more sustainable energy solutions.”
Looking ahead, ZAKH plans to expand its solar module production capacity to over 1.8 GW in the coming years. Its products will primarily serve the UAE and wider GCC and MENA region, with additional reach into Africa, Europe, and the United States.
ZAKH’s flagship solar technology brand, FAERS, emerged as an R&D initiative in Azerbaijan in 2017. Since then, it has evolved into industrial-scale photovoltaic technology manufacturing, offering solutions designed to perform in high-temperature and desert environments.
RAKEZ continues to strengthen its ecosystem for manufacturers operating in renewable energy and sustainability-focused industries. It provides the necessary infrastructure, facilities, and business support to develop local production capabilities and scale operations, fostering sustainable industries and more resilient regional supply chains.
