| Background |
Dubai Electricity and Water AuthorityDubai Electricity and Water Authority plans to develop its first Independent Power Provider in Hassyan, Dubai. The purpose of the project is to meet the increasing demand for power and water in the country. The project was initially planned as an IWPP with a capacity of 1,500 MW and 120 million g/d but was changed to a 1,500 MW IPP. DEWADEWA dropped the desalination component due to the sufficient water supply available in the coming years. The feedstock will be a combination of natural gas and distillate fuel. Mott MacDonaldMott MacDonald is the technical consultant. |
