Union Grand Energy priorities: Bringing new life, social, and economic activity to our historic urban areas

One of our projects at Union Grand Energy that will revitalize the landscape of Baku is our White City development. 

Working closely with international ventures like Atkins (UK), Foster and Partners (UK) and our Azerbaijan partners, White City is being built as one of the biggest urban development and land reclamation projects constructed on land ecologically reclaimed from a former industrial zone.

Our company mission on all the projects we undertake is to bring high-tech innovation to each of our ventures, in the process creating new work, social activity and economic progress, transforming old and obsolete infrastructure into modern restorations and renewals.
