Dewa in debut solar show promotion at US event

DUBAI, January 5, 2016

Dubai Electricity and Water Authority (Dewa) recently took part in Power Gen International 2015, one of the world's largest power generation events held at Las Vegas (US) as part of its promotion campaign for the inaugural Dubai Solar Show in October.

The Dubai Solar Show will be held alongside the Water, Energy, Technology, and Environment Exhibition (Wetex 2016) from October 4 to 6 at the Dubai International Convention and Exhibition Centre.

The Dewa team gave presentations on Dubai Solar Show and the UAE’s progress with solar energy.

The delegation reviewed a number of pilot solar energy projects in Dubai, particularly the Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Solar Park, its construction progress, opportunities to investors, important features of the Innovation Centre, Research and Development Centre (R&D), and the solar-testing facility, said a statement from Dewa.

The delegation also outlined the advantages of participating in the Dubai Solar Show, as it coincides with the global Wetex, which will secure quick growth and presence of international delegations specialising in renewable energy.

"We are keen to participate in various events related to our work with the aim of exchanging knowledge and expertise in the field of energy, especially clean and renewable energy that we focus on at Dewa," remarked Saeed Mohammed Al Tayer, the managing director and chief executive of Dewa.

Events such as Power Gen International provide important opportunities to review Dubai's current and future projects, he stated.

"By participating in global events, we get to learn from the experiences of others and also it helps us develop the capabilities and skills of our employees, enhance their communication with their counterparts around the world, enable them to exchange knowledge and information, and learn about the latest developments as well as the best global practices," added Al Tayer.

Dr Yousef Al Akraf, the executive VP (Business Support and Human Resources) said the delegation at Power Gen International promoted Dubai Solar Show, and succeeded in attracting the attention of significant number of decision-makers who expressed their desire to participate in the exhibition next year.

Power Gen International was co-located with the Renewable Energy World Conference & Expo, featuring energy solutions generated by solar, wind, biomass, hydro, geothermal, ocean, tidal, wave, bio-power, bio-fuels, and hydrogen.

The event attracted around 22,000 power professionals from 90 countries, 200 of the industry’s top speakers, and with 50 educational conference sessions, with participation by 1,400 exhibiting companies, networking events, and technical tours for experts in the exhibition.-TradeArabia News Service
