Global CMX, a facilitator of cross-border investments in sustainable energy and resources, celebrates the UAE-Australia Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement (CEPA) as a transformative force driving unprecedented industry progress. Ratified in October 2025, CEPA is poised to unlock billions in new deals across renewables, green fuels, green metals and hydrogen sectors, with major announcements kicking off at the World Future Energy Summit 2026, hosted by Masdar and part of Abu Dhabi Sustainability Week, during 13th-15th January at ADNEC Centre Abu Dhabi.
The agreement represents a major delta in bilateral trade and investment, eliminating tariffs, streamlining regulations and fostering deeper collaboration between the two nations. By reducing barriers and enhancing market access, CEPA is accelerating the flow of capital and technology, enabling scalable projects that align with global net-zero ambitions. Industry experts anticipate a surge in activity throughout 2026, starting with high-profile unveilings at the Summit, where stakeholders from both countries will converge to showcase innovative partnerships.
“CEPA is a game-changer for the UAE-Australia energy corridor, creating fertile ground for multi-billion-dollar investments that will redefine sustainable development,” said Trevor Ducharme, President, Global CMX. “We’re thrilled to see this agreement translate into real-world progress, from green hydrogen production to advanced renewable infrastructure. At Global CMX, we’re committed to bridging these opportunities. We look forward to contributing as speakers and delegates at the World Future Energy Summit 2026 to drive these announcements forward.”
Gareth Rapley, Portfolio Director, Energy and Marine at RX Global added, “We are excited to once again welcome Global CMX to Abu Dhabi and provide them a platform to reach regional and international industry, government and media stakeholders. The multi-billion-dollar agreements set to be signed during the Summit cements our event as a catalyst for large-scale business deals and a key investment driver, while also encapsulating what we are seeing around green hydrogen and renewable energy investment. It’s another great example of how the UAE is finding the right partners to deliver its clean energy goals.”
This momentum underscores the strategic alignment between the UAE's Vision 2031 and Australia's renewable export superpower aspirations, positioning the partnership as a model for international clean energy cooperation.
