Story details
DEWA’s 20 October briefing for WETEX, scheduled for 20–22 October in Dubai, focuses on reverse-osmosis desalination, water reuse and smart network management. The utility identifies its Hassyan project’s planned capacity as 180 million imperial gallons per day and targets producing all its desalinated water through clean energy and waste heat by 2030.
DEWA also reports that transmission and distribution water losses fell from 42.5% in 1989 to 4.4% in 2025. Its Hydro Insight system uses artificial intelligence to support network management. The loss figures describe past operations; the plant capacity and 2030 energy mix are forward-looking plans.
