Masdar City

Property Mix

Masdar City is one of the world's most ambitious sustainable urban development projects — a planned city on the outskirts of Abu Dhabi designed and being built to be zero-carbon, zero-waste and car-free, powered entirely by renewable energy. The residential and commercial offering serves the international clean energy and sustainability community that has congregated around Masdar Institute (part of Khalifa University) and the global clean energy organisations that have established headquarters here, including IRENA (International Renewable Energy Agency).

Community Vibe

The community vibe is academic, international and purposeful — residents are overwhelmingly clean energy researchers, sustainability professionals, academics and the staff of international organisations who have chosen Abu Dhabi as their base for global clean energy work. The city's design — including a personal rapid transit system, shaded walkways and passive cooling architecture — creates a genuinely innovative living environment.

Who Lives Here

Masdar City attracts sustainability and clean energy professionals, academic researchers and the UAE-based staff of international organisations who want to live in the development most aligned with their professional and personal values. For investors, the government backing, the institutional tenant base and the global significance of the clean energy sector provide an unusual stability for a development that is still in its growth phase.
