“We launched several initiatives and projects to diversify the energy mix and improve its storage, including the Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Solar Park, Hatta hydroelectric power plant, the Green Hydrogen project using solar power, and two pilot projects for energy storage using Tesla’s lithium-ion battery solution, and sodium-sulfur batteries, which is the first utility-scale energy storage pilot project in the region,” said Saeed Mohammed Al Tayer, MD and CEO of DEWA.

Al Tayer added that this patent supports DEWA’s commitment to promoting energy security and sustainability, according to the highest international standards, and its efforts to enhance Dubai’s position as a global hub for clean energy and a green economy.

“DEWA’s strategy is based on disrupting the role of utilities by digitalization using the Fourth Industrial Revolution’s disruptive technologies. We harness innovation and the latest technologies to enhance DEWA’s excellence and leading position as one of the best utilities worldwide,” continued Al Tayer.
