Dubai Electricity and Water Authority, DEWA, has transformed all its independently-operating power stations into a network of smart-grid-enabled smart power plants.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The project involves the development of information systems at each station to transmit joint performance data, as well as the development of the one-way data diode, ODD, and using it to protect each station from cyber-attacks.<\/p>\n
Designed in 2014, DEWA Smart Power Plants system has transformed its existing power station data into a series of reports that can be used by DEWA specialists to support their decision-making, and transform the huge amount of data into an innovative graphic display. This provides a comprehensive and transparent real-time view of the status of stations, so that staff can analyse problems such as technical failures, and support rapid and accurate decision-making, especially during emergency situations.<\/p>\n
Commenting on the announcement, Saeed Mohammed Al Tayer, MD & CEO of DEWA, said, \u201cDEWA\u2019s Smart Power Plants system is designed to achieve the vision of Vice President, Prime Minister and Ruler of Dubai, His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, who said that, \u2018Innovation must become a government habit, a daily practice, and a solid institutional culture. The new objective of our government is to become the most innovative in the world.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThis system, which has gained local and global recognition for its high level of innovation, has been a core factor in DEWA achieving the world\u2019s leading service standards for the services it currently provides.\u201d<\/p>\n
The system has acquired a smart advantage by using DEWA\u2019s manpower,expertise, and knowledge,and including it in its functions. It then uses the data to analyse events and issue smart reports, providing an advanced level of support to decision makers. DEWA Smart Power Plants system allows for the monitoring of equipment at each station and compares it with other stations, which speeds the process of finding solutions formany problems.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
