X-NOOR partners with JA Palm Tree Court, JA Beach Hotel and JA Lake View Hotel to decarbonize hotel operations
JA Palm Tree Court, JA Beach Hotel, Palm Jebel Ali and JA Lake View Hotel will see the installation of a 1.127 MWp solar PV system, which aims to generate 37.6GWh of clean energy over the 20-year term of solar lease agreement.
In addition, the resort's energy consumption will be reduced by 20% through the implementation of several energy efficiency measures under a 10-years shared-savings agreement with X-NOOR
Dubai, UAE: JA Palm Tree Court, JA Beach Hotel, Palm Jebel Ali and JA Lake View Hotel, Jebel Ali's premier beachfront destinations, have signed two strategic agreements with X-NOOR, a leading solar and energy efficiency developer, to enhance its sustainability efforts. These initiatives include the installation of a 1.127 MWp solar PV system and the implementation of several energy efficiency measures, which combined will have an energy savings impact equivalent to 5.1 MWp Solar PV plant. X-NOOR will be responsible for the implementation and ongoing maintenance of both projects.
The first agreement, a 20-year Solar PV Lease, will see the deployment of rooftop solar PV system at the various JA properties. This system is designed to generate 1.972 GWh of clean energy annually, contributing to a total output of 37.6 GWh over two decades. The solar initiative will reduce the resorts carbon emissions by 15,053 tonnes over the term of the agreement, reinforcing both[AG1] [RC2] parties' environmental objectives.
In tandem, JA Palm Tree Court, JA Beach Hotel, Palm Jebel Ali and JA Lake View Hotel have also signed a Shared-Savings Energy Performance Contract (ESPC) with X-NOOR this September. This contract covers the implementation of 14 energy efficiency measures over the next year, with a projected operational savings period of 10 years. These measures will deliver substantial reductions in the resort's energy, water, and diesel [RC3] [JG4] consumption—saving an estimated 8,388 MWh of energy, 7,062,000 imperial gallons of water, and 41,902 litres of diesel annually. Over the 10-year term, these savings will equate to a reduction of over 20% in the resort's utility bills and will result in cumulative CO2 emissions savings of 40,314 metric tonnes. The combined impact of renewable and energy efficiency will set new benchmarks for sustainability in the hospitality industry.
The five-star JA hotels, namely JA Palm Tree Court, JA Beach Hotel, Palm Jebel Ali and JA Lake View Hotel, each offer unique guest experiences while prioritising sustainability. These new initiatives, in collaboration with X-NOOR , align with the properties' commitment to environmental stewardship, further enhancing its green footprint by minimising carbon emissions and optimising resource use.
X-NOOR, a joint venture between X-ELIO and DUTCO, continues its mission to support the decarbonisation journey of industrial and commercial clients in the region by providing turnkey renewable energy solutions. [RC5] [JG6] [RC7] This latest partnership with the various JA hotels represents[AG8] an innovative approach to energy consumption and environmental stewardship, enhancing the hotels sustainable footprint while supporting regional and global climate goals. X-NOOR has offices in KSA, UAE and is active in other GCC countries.

X, India spar over lawyer's 'Tom, Dick, and Harry' remark for government officials
A lawyer for Elon Musk's X told an Indian court on Tuesday that every "Tom, Dick, and Harry" government official had been authorised to issue content takedown orders, drawing a sharp rebuke from New Delhi's counsel in the latest clash over content moderation. X has long been at loggerheads with Prime Minister Narendra Modi's government over content removal requests. The remarks were made during a hearing on the U.S. firm's challenge to a government-run website it says is a "censorship portal" that allows officials to issue content removal orders. New Delhi says the website is only to swiftly notify companies of their due diligence obligations. India is a critical growth market for X owner Musk, who is getting closer to launching his other key ventures Starlink and Tesla in the country. During the court hearing, X's lawyer, K. G. Raghavan, said it recently received a notice from the railways department to remove a video in which a car was being driven on a railway track. That was news, but the government found it unlawful, he told the court. "This is the danger, My Lord, that is done now, if every Tom, Dick, and Harry officer is authorised," Raghavan told the high court in the southern state of Karnataka. The phrase drew immediate condemnation from India's Solicitor General Tushar Mehta, who said "officers are not Tom, Dick, or Harry ... they are statutory functionaries". "No social media intermediary can expect completely unregulated functioning," Mehta said. India's IT ministry and X did not respond to Reuters queries. In 2021, X, formerly called Twitter, was locked in a stand-off with the Indian government over non-compliance with legal orders to block certain tweets. It later complied, but is still locked in a court fight related to the move.
