The Research and Development (R&D) Centre of Dubai Electricity and Water Authority (DEWA), in collaboration with the Swiss Center for Electronics and Microtechnology (CSEM), organised a workshop titled ‘Advancements in Crystalline Silicon and Perovskite Photovoltaic Module Technologies’. The workshop focused on next-generation solar modules, underscoring the critical role of photovoltaic (PV) solar modules in addressing global energy challenges and ensuring energy reliable and sustainable energy supply, particularly in harsh climatic conditions. It also highlighted the latest developments in crystalline silicon and perovskite PV modules.

“We believe that investing in the Emirati talent, and empowering and qualifying Emirati youth, is fundamental to achieving our national aspirations and supporting the Dubai Clean Energy Strategy 2050 and the Dubai Net Zero Carbon Emissions Strategy 2050, which aim to provide 100% of the emirate’s energy production capacity from clean sources by 2050. To this end, we deliver the programmes and initiatives in collaboration with leading research and development centres, as well as major local and international academic institutions to enhance skills and knowledge, and to introduce the latest advancements in clean and renewable technologies,” said HE Saeed Mohammed Al Tayer, MD & CEO of DEWA.

The workshop was held as part of DEWA’s Al Baheth programme, which aims to hone the research and professional skills of Emirati employees by strengthening their practical capabilities and communication skills, enabling them to keep pace with emerging technologies through collaboration with distinguished researchers, companies, universities and research centres from around the world.
