About Me
Siddiqa Al Lawati is an Advisor in the Low Carbon Molecules team of OQ Alternative Energy. She holds an MSc in Advanced Chemical Engineering from Imperial College London. Upon graduation, Siddiqa joined General Electrics Graduate Engineering Training Program to be the first female to join an engineering leadership program at GE. Despite having experience in the oil and gas sector, her passion for preserving the environment of Oman led her to joining the Alternative Energy Industry around 7 years ago to lead project development of multiple mega scale projects in renewable power, green hydrogen and energy efficiency. Outside of work, Siddiqa enjoys volunteering in areas related to sustainability, particularly climate change and the environment as well as empowering the startups ecosystem. This is reflected in her participation in the Global Shapers Network, a youth network of the World Economic Forum.
