HE Saeed Mohammed Al Tayer, MD & CEO of Dubai Electricity and Water Authority (DEWA), discussed DEWA’s pioneering experiences with HE Katia Angeles Vargas, Consul General of the Republic of Peru to Dubai, who visited DEWA to enhance co-operation and gain insights into DEWA’s pioneering and innovative experiences, initiatives and development projects in renewable energy and sustainability, in line with the vision and directives of the wise leadership. Al Tayer emphasised Dubai’s strategic focus on expanding clean energy projects, leveraging Fourth Industrial Revolution technologies and digitalisation, and maintaining world-leading infrastructure with the highest levels of reliability, efficiency and availability. He also highlighted DEWA’s commitment to accelerating investments in disruptive technologies.

During the meeting, Al Tayer outlined DEWA’s vision and ambitious strategies, which align with the UN Sustainable Development Goals 2030, the UAE Net Zero by 2050 Strategic Initiative and the Dubai Net Zero Carbon Emissions Strategy 2050, which aims to achieve 100% clean energy production, establish Dubai as a global sustainability hub and support global efforts to achieve sustainable development and address environmental challenges.

Al Tayer also showcased DEWA’s flagship projects, including the Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Solar Park, the world’s largest single-site solar park. The park utilises photovoltaic solar panels and concentrated solar power (CSP) technologies, enabling sustainable electricity production around the clock. Additionally, he highlighted the Hassyan complex water desalination project, which employs reverse-osmosis technology to desalinate seawater, aiming to achieve 100% desalinated water production using clean energy by 2030.

Angeles Vargas commended DEWA’s pioneering initiatives and expressed Peru’s interest in benefiting from these experiences and exploring opportunities for collaboration in renewable energy and water resource management, contributing to the achievement of sustainable development goals.
