Fatima Al Khemiri

Saudi Arabian AI innovator revolutionizing renewable energy infrastructure

Fatima Al Khemiri is a Saudi engineer whose AI solutions have transformed solar energy efficiency in arid regions. As CEO of SolarTech Solutions, she developed the DesertSun Algorithm that increased panel efficiency by 37% in high-temperature conditions. Her 2021 invention, the Smart Dust Collection System, uses machine learning to predict and optimize solar panel cleaning schedules, reducing maintenance costs by 60%. In 2023, she launched the Green Arabia Initiative, deploying AI-powered microgrids in 50+ remote villages across the Middle East. This work earned her the Global Cleantech Leadership Award in 2024. Her TEDx talk "Powering the Future with Smart Solar" has become a key resource for renewable energy policymakers. Al Khemiri's collaboration with MIT's Energy Initiative has led to breakthroughs in thermal energy storage, with patents pending for 4 new technologies. Her vision of AI-driven sustainable infrastructure has inspired a new generation of engineers in the Gulf region, making her a pivotal figure in the global energy transition movement.
