The Dubai Electricity and Water Authority (DEWA) has lifted the lid on the planning process for the sixth phase of the Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Solar Park.
The Dubai Electricity and Water Authority (DEWA) has issued an update indicating that the Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Solar Park is still targeting 5 GW of generation capacity within this decade.
The Dubai Electricity and Water Authority has a tendency to reveal changes in the project’s specification by publishing updates emphasizing the progress achieved to date.
The Dubai Electricity and Water Authority installed 514 MW of the fifth 900 MW phase of the 5 GW Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Solar Park in May.
The Dubai Electricity and Water Authority has indicated that parts of the concentrating solar power element of the Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Solar Park could be running more than four months behind schedule, as well as a 3 MW slice of the promised solar panel capacity.
Emirati utility DEWA has said it expects a further 517 MW of photovoltaic and CSP generation capacity to come online this year at the Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum solar field, after the first, 300 MW slice of the fifth phase of the sprawling development was recently inaugurated.
The new headquarters planned by DEWA is intended to consume no more annual electricity than it generates, from a large volume of rooftop and building-integrated PV.
Utility DEWA is leveraging space technology to improve forecasting as the nation continues to develop its gargantuan solar park in Saih Al-Dahal, 50km south of Dubai.
Utility DEWA has announced the first 300 MW of the fifth phase of the Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Solar Park will be commissioned next month, with the first stage of the fourth phase due to arrive two months later.
The trade show will be held from October 5-7 under the auspices of the Covid-delayed global trade fair.
