Foresight for Resilience: The Oman Clean Energy Strategic Outlook

Lead Author: Dawud Ansari

This report examines how Oman’s clean energy economy could evolve under different global futures, and what this means for long-term economic resilience, employment, and industrial development. Drawing on strategic foresight and scenario analysis, it explores how external forces—such as shifting geopolitics, global climate policy, and changing energy markets—interact with domestic priorities. Rather than assuming a single pathway, the report highlights the importance of adaptive policymaking and coordinated national action in navigating uncertainty.

Building on this outlook, the study provides a systematic assessment of clean energy–related sectors, identifying where Oman’s strongest opportunities lie and how trade-offs between financial returns, employment creation, and strategic value can be managed. It emphasises integrated industrial ecosystems, dynamic sector portfolios, and regional coordination within the GCC as key enablers of sustainable growth. Designed for policymakers, investors, and experts, the report offers an evidence-based foundation for shaping Oman’s clean energy strategy and labour market in the years ahead.
