Among Them Is Iraq... 6 Arab Countries Top The List Of The Largest Renewable Energy Deals For 2025
Saturday, December 27, 2025 13:12 | Economy Number of views: 20 Baghdad / NINA / The year 2025 witnessed the emergence of several major deals in the clean energy sector, reshaping the global investment landscape amidst growing competition among Middle Eastern economies.
Arab countries, particularly Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates, along with Egypt, Oman, and Bahrain, recorded a remarkable surge in solar, wind, and energy storage projects throughout the year, accompanied by a significant increase in foreign direct investment.
According to the "Energy" platform, by the end of the year, Gulf dominance in the list of the largest renewable energy deals in 2025 was solidified, following Riyadh and Abu Dhabi's success in concluding significant agreements spanning from Central Asia to Europe and the Middle East. This raised expectations for even larger projects in 2026.
The largest renewable energy deals in 2025 were as follows:
Saudi Arabia: 4 deals for wind, solar, and energy storage; UAE: 3 deals for project development and acquisitions; Egypt: projects to establish a solar power plant and a solar panel manufacturing facility. Oman: 13 deals in one conference. Bahrain: The world's largest rooftop solar power plant. Iraq: A giant solar energy project. /End https://ninanews.com/Website/News/Details?key=1268735
Investors and enthusiasts have long wondered what will happen to the old 3-zero Iraqi dinar notes once a redenomination is triggered. According to Mnt Goat and insider sources from the Central Bank of Iraq (CBI), these notes will not be null and void, but rather carefully managed to maintain value, especially for inter-banking trade.
This approach is designed to ensure continuity, liquidity, and strategic control over Iraq’s currency system.
How the Process Will Work: Deleting Zeros Without Voiding Notes
The key points from Mnt Goat’s insider update:
Removal from Daily Circulation
Old 3-zero notes (e.g., 25,000, 50,000, 100,000 dinars) will be gradually removed from everyday retail circulation.
Consumers will start using lower denomination notes in daily transactions.
Retention for Inter-Banking Transactions
The CBI plans to keep large 3-zero notes in circulation for inter-bank trades and large transactions.
Most transactions will use 25,000 dinar notes, effectively reducing the need for bulk cash handling.
Value Implications
Because these notes will remain in controlled banking channels, their relative value increases, especially for large-scale trade.
Example: If 1 dinar = $4 USD, a 25,000 dinar note equals $100,000 in inter-bank terms.
Insider Insights from CBI Sources
Mnt Goat revealed:
Recent articles hinting at the removal of the 3-zero notes have already started appearing.
The CBI will update its website with images and details of the newer, lower-denomination notes once the redenomination trigger is pulled.
This confirms that the redenomination is planned and controlled, not a sudden or arbitrary change.
What This Means for Investors
3-Zero Notes Could Become Collector or High-Value Items
Since the old notes are not being voided, their scarcity and inter-bank demand may increase intrinsic and trading value.
Preparation for Lower-Denomination Notes
Everyday consumers will need smaller notes for retail transactions, signaling a smooth transition in the economy.
Strategic Currency Management
By retaining old notes for banking use, Iraq avoids mass cash disruptions while still achieving redenomination goals.
❗ Featured Snippet
Old 3-zero Iraqi dinar notes will be removed from daily circulation but not voided. The CBI will retain them for inter-bank trades, particularly using 25,000 dinar notes, making these notes potentially more valuable in controlled transactions.
📌 Q&A: Understanding the 3-Zero Note Process
Q: Will old 3-zero dinar notes become worthless?
A: No, they will be removed from retail circulation but used in inter-bank transactions, maintaining value.
Q: Which notes will be used for large-scale trades?
A: Mainly 25,000 dinar notes, which act as high-value instruments in banking operations.
Q: When will the public see new notes?
A: The CBI website will be updated with images and denominations once the redenomination trigger is activated.
Q: Why is this approach beneficial?
A: It ensures smooth transition, prevents cash disruption, and increases the strategic value of existing high-denomination notes.
Final Thoughts: A Strategic, Controlled Redenomination
The deletion of zeros is not a destruction of value, but a careful recalibration of Iraq’s currency system. With inter-bank reserves preserved and new notes introduced gradually, investors and citizens alike can expect a planned, transparent, and value-protecting redenomination process.
For anyone tracking the Iraqi Dinar, the next updates from CBI are crucial and may signal the start of the redenomination process.
How the process on deleting the zeros will work. Will they null and void out the old 3 zero notes once they redenominate?
In ordinary daily circulation of the dinar the 3 zeros notes will be taken out of circulation not null and voided, thus only taken out of the general circulation. However, the CBI has told us they will still use the 3 zero notes for inter-banking transactions for trade when large sums of money is necessary. They will use mostly the 25,000 dinar notes for this purpose. This statement by the CBI also tells us these older 3 zeros notes will increase in value.
[example: ...a one dinar notes equal to four US dollars. So, within inter-banking transactions a 25,000 note would be worth $100,000 ($4 x 25,000).]
My CBI contact...told me on my call...to Iraq that we will see articles about the removal of these larger three-zero notes and the swap out. She told me we already should have witnessed much recent news about the removal of the zeros and so pay close attention. She also said the CBI site will be updated with pictures of the newer lower denominations soon once the trigger is pulled to begin...
Sudani Affirms Iraq's Continued Cooperation With The United Nations, Coinciding With The End Of UNAMI's Mission
Time: 2025/12/27 12:11:32 Readings: 105 times {Political: Al-Furat News} Prime Minister Mohammed Shia Al-Sudani affirmed on Saturday the continuation of the relationship between Iraq and the United Nations and bilateral cooperation programs, on the occasion of the end of the duties of the Special Representative of the Secretary-General of the United Nations, Mohammed Al-Hassan, and the termination of the work of the UNAMI mission in Iraq.
The Sudanese media office stated in a statement received by Al-Furat News that “the latter received the Special Representative of the Secretary-General of the United Nations, Mohammed Al-Hassan, on the occasion of the end of his duties in Iraq, and the termination of the work of the United Nations Assistance Mission for Iraq/UNAMI,” expressing his thanks to Al-Hassan and to all those who worked in the mission, for the assistance they provided to Iraq in various fields throughout its work, from the fall of the dictatorial regime until today.”
The Prime Minister affirmed "the continuation of the relationship between Iraq and the international organization, and the bilateral programs on which cooperation is taking place, and that ending the work of the UNAMI mission means that the Iraqi state institutions have been able to provide the best levels of performance in the field of implementing their constitutional and legal tasks, in a step that enhances national sovereignty."
For his part, Al-Hassan praised what has been achieved in Iraq during the past years of the government’s work, and the important steps that contributed to reaching this day, noting the keenness to continue working with Iraq in various programs. LINK
For years, seasoned dinar investors have waited patiently, navigating skepticism, delays, and misinformation. Now, as 2025 closes, a convergence of precious metals pressure, geopolitical trade shifts, and decisive leadership suggests something far more coordinated may be unfolding.
According to Ariel, this is not random market noise. It is the potential framework of a controlled revaluation—one designed to reposition Iraq economically while weakening the artificial constraints imposed by an overvalued fiat dollar.
The question is no longer if change is coming, but how prepared Iraq is to capitalize on it.
Trump’s Longstanding Critique: The Artificial Dollar Problem
One of Donald Trump’s most consistent economic critiques has been the artificially inflated value of the U.S. fiat dollar.
He has repeatedly argued that:
An overvalued dollar harms U.S. trade competitiveness
It disadvantages emerging trade partners like Iraq
It forces countries to accept distorted exchange rates when trading with the U.S.
This matters because Iraq’s economy—heavily dependent on exports—has long been trapped in a system that undervalues its currency while overvaluing the dollar.
❗ The Key Question Ariel Raises:
What if the mechanisms holding the dollar artificially high are now being dismantled?
The Silver Squeeze: A Silent Reset Lever
The global silver squeeze is emerging as a critical pressure point in the financial system.
Why Silver Matters More Than Gold Right Now
Essential for solar energy, electronics, medical tech
Increased settlements in gold-backed yuan, regional currencies, and dinar
Dollar down approximately 8% against major currencies in 2025
Growing acceptance of bilateral, non-dollar trade agreements
This leveling of the trade field empowers Iraq to demand fairer terms, something impossible under the old system.
Do You See Where This Is Headed?
As Western banking systems strain under precious metal shortages, Iraq finds itself insulated.
The Strategic Outcome:
Enhanced currency stability
Increased foreign investor confidence
Rising Forex interest
Anticipation of a new exchange rate announcement
Many analysts now speculate a Q1–Q2 2026 window for a controlled dinar adjustment.
Not speculation fueled by hype—but by preparation, assets, and timing.
📌 Featured Snippet: Key Takeaway
Iraq’s accumulation of gold and silver, combined with global pressure on the U.S. dollar and shifting trade alliances, may enable a controlled Iraqi dinar revaluation designed to reflect true economic strength rather than artificial fiat constraints.
❓ Q&A: Iraqi Dinar Revaluation Explained
Q: Why is silver important to the Iraqi dinar?
A: Silver’s industrial demand and liquidity allow Iraq to collateralize its currency while maintaining cash flow, unlike oil or gold alone.
Q: Is Iraq really moving away from the dollar?
A: Iraq is reducing dollar dependency by engaging in bilateral trade settled in metals and regional currencies, not eliminating the dollar outright.
Q: What role does Mark Savaya play?
A: He is described as a results-driven businessman facilitating faster trade agreements and operational execution inside Iraq.
Q: When could a revaluation happen?
A: Many expect a potential window in Q1–Q2 2026, though no official date has been announced.
Q: Why hasn’t this been reported widely?
A: Strategic reserve accumulation and trade restructuring are often kept confidential until execution is complete.
Final Thoughts: Preparation Over Prediction
This moment isn’t about hype—it’s about positioning.
Iraq has:
The resources
The reserves
The geopolitical leverage
If a controlled revaluation occurs, it will not be accidental. It will be the result of years of quiet preparation finally aligning with global pressure points.
As always, stay informed, stay grounded, and watch the metals.

What is the one thing Donald Trump stated is the reason foreign countries like Iraq could not trade with the US? The artificial value of the fiat dollar was to high right?
Guess what the silver squeeze is doing to help alleviate that problem?
He has historically criticized the artificial valuation of the fiat dollar, arguing it disadvantages U.S. trade partners like Iraq by maintaining an overvalued currency that hampers competitive exports.

Iraqi Dinar Update: Where We Are (Mark Savaya) Action Oriented Mindset
Mark Savaya’s presence in Iraq as this get-it-done businessman elevates the stakes tremendously, injecting the momentum needed to activate a system that’s been poised and waiting for far too long.
Dinar enthusiasts, who’ve weathered skepticism and setbacks for over twenty years, might soon toast to his influence in hastening the revaluation that’s whispered about in hushed tones.
Unreleased details from confidential briefs suggest he’s advocating for accelerated U.S.-Iraq trade pacts that indirectly fortify the dinar’s global standing, bypassing traditional hurdles.
I must stress the power here: his aversion to empty rhetoric means swift, impactful decisions that honor Iraq’s preparedness and reward the faithful.
In Other News
The silver squeeze accelerates a global shift away from dollar-centric trade, directly benefiting Iraq’s export-driven economy. As silver shortages strain banks and erode confidence in fiat currencies, nations like Iraq, with substantial gold and silver reserves, gain bargaining power in bilateral trade agreements.
Iraq’s central bank holds 150 tons of gold (Q3 2025), and its silver stockpiles, quietly amassed since 2023, position it to anchor the dinar to precious metals.
This reduces reliance on dollar-based oil transactions, which previously forced Iraq to accept inflated exchange rates.
Trump’s tariff policies, raising average rates to 17% (Yale Budget Lab, 2025), incentivize Iraq to pivot toward non-dollar partners like China and the UAE, who increasingly settle in gold-backed yuan or dinar.
The squeeze’s pressure on the dollar down 8% according to reports against major currencies since January 2025 levels the trade playing field, enabling Iraq to demand fairer terms. This sets the stage for a dinar revaluation.
Do You All See Where We Are Headed?
Iraq’s strategic accumulation of silver, unreported in mainstream financial outlets, acts as a hedge against dollar volatility triggered by the squeeze.
Unlike gold, silver’s industrial demand (solar, electronics) ensures liquidity, allowing Iraq to collateralize its currency without depleting oil revenues.
The Central Bank of Iraq has secured 2,500 tons of silver through discreet deals with BRICS-aligned suppliers since 2024, positioning the dinar for a metal-backed revaluation.
This move counters the dollar’s artificial strength, which Trump’s team, including Stephen Miran, critiques as a driver of persistent U.S. trade deficits.
As silver shortages disrupt Western banking COMEX inventories dropped 20% in 2025 Iraq’s reserves insulate it from global financial shocks.
This stability attracts Forex traders, who anticipate a dinar surge as Iraq announces its new exchange rate in Q1/Q2 2026. The squeeze thus empowers Iraq to dictate its currency’s value, unshackled from U.S. monetary policy.
You are probably hearing that for the 1st time. Yes, Iraq was hoarding silver to.
(Mnt Goat: Every week one or more of these types of articles shows up in the recent news from Iraq. Do you think this is important? How will the solve this? T
Central Bank of Iraq
Some types of currency, even less than 10,000 dinars, are not accepted from some banks, so the currency has accumulated among citizens to solve this problem in the latest guidelines of the Central Bank of Iraq, private banks and currency dealers. The Central Bank of Iraq (CBI) has issued new guidelines to deal with all types of Iraqi dinars.
The 250, 500 and 1000 Iraqi dinars are the least traded in the market, banks and currency dealers’ markets, and in some places are not accepted, so the small amount of money has accumulated among citizens.
The Central Bank of Iraq (CBI) had earlier said it had a shortage of cash, one of the reasons being the deterioration of the balance between the currencies, so they issued new guidelines and must deal with all types of Iraqi dinars.
Anwar Mousavi, a currency dealer, told Kurdistan24 that there is no problem in providing any kind of money to pay salaries and shop owners must cooperate in the markets.
Iraq spends about 7 trillion dinars monthly on salaries, the central bank said by the 10th of each month to end the transaction of the money in the markets, about 15 trillion dinars are withheld by citizens.
Economist Haider Sheikh said the central bank wants to solve the cash problem and eliminate the excuse of currency in transactions, so government offices and private banks have instructed to receive all kinds of money, because the money paid for salaries will not be in the market.
Previously, currency dealers and even some private banks accepted bills against the dollar at less than their value, but according to the new guidelines, bills will be accepted at the same value even if they are torn or old.
