ABU DHABI // The emirate will almost double its annual green-energy prize to $4 million, organisers have announced.

The Zayed Future Energy Prize, which commemorates Sheikh Zayed, the founding president of the UAE, awards international leaders in clean-energy innovation.

The top prize remains $1.5 million (Dh5.5m), while the award for the first runner-up was boosted to $1m and second runner-up to $500,000. Both were previously $350,000.
