DEWA's Green Hydrogen Project: Pioneering Sustainable Energy in Dubai
Key Ideas
  • DEWA's Green Hydrogen project in Dubai has produced 90 tonnes of green hydrogen and generated over 1 GWh of green energy since its launch in May 2021.
  • The project, in collaboration with Expo 2020 Dubai and Siemens Energy, aims to reduce CO2 emissions by approximately 450 tonnes and support the UAE's goal to acquire 25% of the low-carbon hydrogen market.
  • Implemented at the Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Solar Park, the project uses solar energy for electrolysis, storing up to 12 hours of hydrogen in its gas tank for electricity production during the night.
  • DEWA's efforts align with the National Hydrogen Strategy, Dubai Clean Energy Strategy 2050, and Dubai Net Zero Carbon Emissions Strategy 2050, emphasizing the shift towards clean energy sources by 2050.
Dubai Electricity and Water Authority (DEWA) has made significant strides in sustainable energy with its Green Hydrogen project, producing 90 tonnes of green hydrogen and generating over 1 GWh of green energy since its inception in May 2021. This project, conducted in partnership with Expo 2020 Dubai and Siemens Energy, aims to curtail CO2 emissions by about 450 tonnes and supports the UAE's ambition to capture 25% of the low-carbon hydrogen market. By utilizing solar energy at the Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Solar Park, the largest single-site solar park globally, DEWA is driving competitive prices in green hydrogen production, contributing to the nation's clean energy objectives. The project's focus on reducing production and storage costs of green hydrogen not only enhances clean energy efficiency but also fosters global interest in sustainable investments. With a strategic vision aligning with the UAE's sustainable development goals and global climate initiatives, DEWA's Green Hydrogen project signifies a pioneering step towards a more sustainable future.
