PureHealth and Yellow
Door Energy sign master
lease agreement to deliver
sustainable healthcare in
the UAE
(ABU DHABI)
-
PureHealth,
the largest healthcare group
in the Middle East, and
Yellow Door Energy, the
leading sustainable energy
partner for businesses in
the Middle East and South
Africa, have signed a master
lease agreement to bring
clean electricity to its
network of hospitals and
clinics in the UAE.
The 25-year agreement
strengthens operational
efficiency, improves
long-term cost
predictability, and embeds
sustainability into
long-term asset planning.
The on-site solar power
plants are expected to
generate approximately 23.5
million kilowatt-hours (kWh)
of clean electricity
annually, equivalent to
reducing carbon emissions by
7,200 metric tons, thereby
further aligning with the
UAE’s national Net Zero by
2050 Strategy.
Leya Al Damani,
Chief Sustainability Officer
at PureHealth, said:
“This partnership sets a new
benchmark for sustainable
healthcare and reflects our
responsibility to reduce the
healthcare sector’s
environmental footprint. By
combining resilient
infrastructure and reliable
power, we’re making our
hospitals and clinics more
operationally efficient,
enabling them to deliver
uninterrupted, high-quality
patient care. As we work
towards net zero by 2040,
this project forms a core
component of the Smart
Facilities and Operations
pillar, reducing reliance on
fossil fuels and advancing
cleaner, more resilient
energy systems.”
Jeremy Crane, Group
CEO of Yellow Door Energy,
said: “We are
honored to partner with
PureHealth to bring clean
electricity to its extensive
network of hospitals and
clinics across the UAE.
Healthcare plays a vital
role in societal well-being,
and powering these essential
facilities with clean energy
supports both environmental
sustainability and long-term
operational resilience. With
more than 1.1 terawatt-hours
of clean electricity
generated from our operating
projects, Yellow Door Energy
has the expertise to deliver
multi-site solutions under
master lease agreements. We
look forward to supporting
PureHealth in accelerating
its Net Zero by 2040
commitment and contributing
to the UAE’s Net Zero by
2050 Strategy.”
Under the master lease
agreement, Yellow Door
Energy is responsible for
financing, designing,
constructing, commissioning,
operating, and maintaining
the solar power plants
across PureHealth’s UAE
healthcare assets. The solar
leasing model enables
PureHealth to benefit from
clean energy and advance its
Net Zero by 2040 ambition
and reinforces the group’s
commitment to building a
smarter, more sustainable
healthcare system aligned
with the UAE’s national
priorities for energy
efficiency, digital
transformation, and climate
action.
This
partnership reflects a
broader shift toward
integrated sustainability in
healthcare, where clean
energy, operational
efficiency, and
patient-centric care come
together to support
healthier communities and a
more sustainable future.
