“On World Environment Day, we renew our commitment to the vision of HH Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, who once said that, “Every investment in the development of clean energy sources is at the same time an investment to protect the environment for future generations.” At Dubai Electricity and Water Authority, we work to diversify energy sources and increase the share f renewable energy in Dubai’s energy mix. This supports the Dubai Clean Energy Strategy 2050 to transform Dubai into a global hub for clean energy and green economy, and provide 7% of Dubai’s energy from clean energy sources by 2020, 25% by 2030, and 75% by 2050,” said HE Saeed Mohammed Al Tayer, MD&CEO of DEWA.
“At DEWA, we adopt best international environmental practices. This resulted in DEWA winning many global prestigious awards in environmental excellence. These include the Five Star Environmental Audit from the British Safety Council for six years in a row, jointly with the Globe of Honour from the British Safety Council, one of only 7 organisations worldwide. DEWA was the first organisation in the Middle East and North Africa to receive this prestigious award, with full mark, six years in a row. This prestigious award is an international recognition of the successful approach and environmental strategies and policies adopted by DEWA in implementing the Integrated Management Systems policy to achieve sustainability and environmental protection.”
“World Environment Day is an opportunity for us all to realise our responsibilities to the environment, to protect our natural resources and develop the concept of resource use to become a social culture and daily practice to support sustainable development. This is achieved by rationalising electricity and water use and adopting a responsible way of life, to ensure the sustainability of our natural resources, for generations to come.
