DEWA

Dubai Electricity and Water Authority (DEWA) is organising the 25th Water, Energy, Technology and Environment Exhibition (WETEX) and Dubai Solar Show (DSS) under the theme ‘At the forefront of sustainability’, from 15th to 17th November 2023, at the Dubai World Trade Centre.

The event is held under the directives of His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President, Prime Minister and Ruler of Dubai, and the patronage of H.H. Sheikh Ahmed bin Saeed Al Maktoum, Chairman of the Dubai Supreme Council of Energy.

Saeed Mohammed Al Tayer, MD and CEO of DEWA, Founder and Chairman of WETEX and DSS, noted that the 2023 WETEX and DSS has notable momentum, as it coincides with the ‘Year of Sustainability’ in the UAE. It is expected to witness an exceptional turnout, especially with the UAE’s preparations to host the COP28 by the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) at Dubai Expo City in November.

DEWA will also organise the first Middle East and North Africa Solar Conference 2023 in conjunction with the exhibition. This will attract additional experts and researchers specialised in clean and renewable energy. The conference is the first scientific and technical conference in the region that specialises in photovoltaic systems.

The exhibition is a significant event in the global sustainability calendar, being the largest in the region in energy, water, green development, sustainability and related sectors, and one of the world's largest specialised exhibitions. The exhibition contributes to showcasing the efforts of the UAE and Dubai in the field of renewable and clean energy, and the continuous achievements that make Dubai a global model protecting natural resources and achieving sustainability and a green economy.

On the sideline of the event, specialised seminars and panel discussions will be held to exchange ideas with several international experts and specialists.
