Yemen, represented by a delegation that Minister of Electricity Abdullah al-Akwaa heads, has participated in the first summit of the International Solar Alliance held in the Indian capital New Delhi on Monday. The aim of ISA is to promote solar energy and reduce dependence on fossil fuels in sunshine-rich countries.

India's Prime Minister Narendra Modi inaugurated the summit which brought together 21 heads of 64 states that had already signed the Accession Agreement to the treaty of the alliance.

Delivering Yemen's speech, al-Akwaa said the Yemeni government has, since 2016, been keen on joining the ISA saying Yemen is benefitting from the financing mechanisms of the World Bank-backed alliance.
