The Sustainability and Innovation Centre of Dubai Electricity and Water Authority (DEWA) received a high-level delegation from Brazil, headed by governors and vice-governors from the country’s north-eastern states. The visitors learnt about the latest advancements in clean and renewable energy, key green initiatives in Dubai and DEWA’s most prominent projects, including the Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Solar Park.

DEWA welcomes visiting delegations who find the Sustainability and Innovation Centre to be a global platform to foster government-private partnerships and entrepreneurship in the areas of sustainability and clean and renewable energy, and to explore investment opportunities in the latest technologies to accelerate the energy transition and achieve net zero and sustainable development. The centre supports DEWA’s efforts to consolidate the UAE’s pivotal role in shaping the future of the energy and water sectors and to achieve the UAE Net Zero 2050 Strategy, the Dubai Clean Energy Strategy 2050 and the Dubai Net Zero Carbon Emissions Strategy 2050.

Dr Aaesha Alnuaimi, Director of DEWA’s Sustainability and Innovation Centre, briefed the visitors on DEWA’s key projects, including the Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Solar Park, the largest single-site solar park in the world based on the independent power producer model, as well as the Green Hydrogen Project, the first of its kind in the Middle East and North Africa to produce hydrogen using solar energy, and the EV Green Charger initiative, which introduced the region's first public electric vehicle charging infrastructure.

The Brazilian delegation praised DEWA’s global leadership in sustainability, noting that its projects were models for leveraging innovation and advanced technology to enable a meaningful shift towards a sustainable future.
