About
Dr. Sameh Al-Shihabi is a leading researcher in sustainable energy systems and decision science, with a focus on the intersection of renewable energy optimization and industrial performance. His most cited work, "Multi-criteria decision-making approach for the selection of cleaning method of solar PV panels in United Arab Emirates based on sustainability perspective" (2022, 57 citations), provides a groundbreaking framework for evaluating solar panel maintenance through environmental, social, and economic lenses—directly addressing a critical operational challenge in the UAE's expanding solar infrastructure. This study has become essential reading for practitioners and policymakers seeking cost-effective, sustainable cleaning solutions. More recently, Dr. Al-Shihabi has advanced the discourse on artificial intelligence in the oil and gas sector with his 2025 thematic review, which introduces the concept of "AI realization"—distinguishing superficial adoption from sustainable, scalable integration. His work bridges the gap between theoretical AI capabilities and practical industrial benefits, offering actionable insights for energy companies navigating digital transformation. Through his research, Dr. Al-Shihabi demonstrates a rare ability to combine rigorous multi-criteria analysis with real-world applicability, making significant contributions to both renewable energy management and the strategic deployment of AI in traditional industries.
