Platinum Group, Wiseman HK New Energy, And Upwards Solutions Technology Launch JV In Abu Dhabi

A landmark agreement was signed in Abu Dhabi, formally establishing Wisemen Middle East, a pioneering joint venture between Abu Dhabi's own Platinum Group, global new energy technology leader Wiseman HK New Energy, and UAE technology innovator company Upwards Solutions Technology. The new entity is poised to become a dominant force in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region's rapidly evolving energy sector, focusing on the deployment of cutting-edge sustainable energy and smart city technologies. The agreement was signed by Platinum Group Managing Director Dr. Hanai Atatreh, Upwards CEO Abdullah Lei Shen, and Wiseman HK Chairwoman Ms. Li Feng, in the presence of Dr. Ali Naser Yabhouni Aldhaheri, CEO of Platinum Group, who witnessed the ceremony.

The signing ceremony marks the culmination of months of strategic planning and collaboration. Wisemen Middle East will be headquartered in Abu Dhabi, leveraging the UAE's strategic location, robust infrastructure, and its unwavering commitment to sustainability, as outlined in the UAE Net Zero by 2050 strategic initiative. The joint venture aims to integrate advanced hardware and intelligent software to deliver comprehensive, turnkey solutions for utility-scale energy storage, smart grid modernization, electric vehicle (EV) infrastructure, and AI-powered energy management systems. The joint entity will also create local production of hardware equipment to serve the region's needs.

The partnership creates a powerful synergy by combining the distinct strengths of each entity. Platinum Group provides deep regional expertise, extensive market access, and a strong track record in large-scale project development within the GCC. Wiseman HK New Energy brings its world-class research, development, and manufacturing capabilities in high-performance EV charging technology and energy storage systems to UAE. Upwards Solutions Technology contributes its proprietary AI and IoT platforms, which will serve as the intelligent core for optimizing energy distribution, consumption, and storage across the venture's projects, while also providing the implementation expertise required for nation-wide project execution.

“Today marks a historic milestone not just for Platinum Group, but for the entire region's journey towards a sustainable future,” said Dr Ali Naser Yabhouni Aldhaheri, CEO of Platinum Group.“By establishing Wisemen Middle East in Abu Dhabi, we are anchoring this transformative initiative right here at home.

We are not just investing in technology; we are investing in a cleaner, smarter, and more resilient energy infrastructure for generations to come. Our JV with Wiseman HK and Upwards Solutions creates an unparalleled powerhouse of innovation and execution.”

Wisemen Middle East will commence operations immediately. The first phase of its strategic roadmap includes the development and deployment of regional super-fast chargers deployment with intelligent management. Subsequent projects will include smart grid pilot programs in key urban centers across the GCC and the rollout of a comprehensive EV fast-charging network powered by integrated solar and robotics solutions.

Feng Li, Chairwoman of Wiseman HK New Energy, commented on the venture's technological promise:“The MENA region represents one of the most dynamic and ambitious markets for new energy solutions globally. We have been seeking a strategic entry point that aligns with our commitment to quality and innovation, and we have found the perfect partners in Platinum Group and Upwards Solutions. Our advanced battery and modular energy storage architecture are designed for high-temperature environments and long-duration applications, making them ideally suited for the challenges and opportunities in this region. Through Wisemen Middle East, we will bring our most advanced technologies to the forefront of the region's energy transition.”

The venture's focus on AI and data analytics seeks to be a key differentiator. The AI software platform, powered by Upwards Solutions Technology will enable predictive maintenance, real-time grid load balancing, and dynamic energy trading, maximizing the efficiency and economic viability of the deployed assets. This data-driven approach will provide utilities and large energy consumers with unprecedented control and insight into their energy usage.

“Energy hardware is only as effective as the software that controls it,” stated Mr Abdullah Lei Shen, CEO of Upwards Solutions Technology.“Our role in Wisemen Middle East is to bring the digital brain that unlocks the full potential of these incredible physical assets. Our AI algorithms will optimize every electron, from storage to consumption, ensuring reliability, reducing costs, and minimizing carbon footprint. We are thrilled to partner with industry leaders to create a truly integrated, intelligent energy ecosystem for the Middle East.”

The establishment of Wisemen Middle East is expected to create highly skilled jobs in Abu Dhabi in fields such as engineering, data science, and project management. The venture also plans to establish a local R&D hub to adapt and develop technologies specifically for the region's unique climatic and market conditions, further cementing Abu Dhabi's position as a global center for clean energy innovation.
