The company is building the zero-carbon tower to help combat climate change. A solar panel rooftop, automated HVAC (heating, ventilation, and air conditioning) field devices, and a slew of ultra-modern building technologies will be used in the project. His company wants to develop its next commercial real estate project in Saudi Arabia, followed by Dubai in the United Arab Emirates.
