DEWA Shares Summer Tips to Save on Dubai Electricity Bills



    The Dubai Electricity and Water Authority (DEWA), known for its role in managing electricity and water supplies in Dubai, has offered valuable summer tips to help residents save money on their bills. With a focus on safety and efficiency, DEWA aims to empower customers to manage their utilities effectively.

    One of DEWA's suggestions is activating the "Away Mode" feature, which enables customers to monitor their electricity and water consumption while they are away from home. This feature proves especially useful for individuals who travel frequently or are absent for extended periods. By accessing their DEWA accounts through the website or mobile application, customers can receive daily or weekly usage data via email.

    To further reduce electricity bills, DEWA advises individuals to switch off lights when not in use and unplug electrical appliances and electronics when they are not needed. Additionally, installing timers for outdoor floodlights can help regulate their usage. For water conservation, DEWA recommends shutting off the water supply and engaging a specialized technician to check for any leaks or faulty connections.

    DEWA has also been embracing innovative solutions to enhance its services. Recently, the authority implemented 3D printing technology for internal manufacturing of spare parts. This approach has resulted in significant cost savings, amounting to AED 509,658 in 2021 and 2022. With over 1,800 spare parts already produced at their 3D printing lab in the R&D Center, DEWA continues to explore and develop this technology.

    DEWA's commitment to optimizing electricity and water consumption reflects their dedication to providing efficient and sustainable services to the people of Dubai. By implementing these summer tips and embracing cutting-edge solutions, DEWA aims to assist customers in managing their bills effectively while contributing to a greener future.

Sky Care: How the UAE’s First Hospital Vertiport is Redefining Emergency Response

  Imagine a critical patient, a time-sensitive organ for transplant, or a specialist medical team needed across a bustling city. On the ground, traffic is a formidable adversary, where every minute lost can alter outcomes. Now, imagine that same journey taking minutes instead of an hour, not by navigating the roads, but by soaring gracefully above them. This is not a scene from a sci-fi film; it is the new reality in the United Arab Emirates. In a landmark move that solidifies its position on the global stage of innovation, the UAE has officially launched the nation’s — and the region’s — first hospital-based vertiport at Cleveland Clinic Abu Dhabi. This isn’t just a helipad with a new name. It is the cornerstone of a fully integrated, city-wide advanced air mobility (AAM) ecosystem, marking a profound convergence of cutting-edge aviation, AI-driven healthcare, and sustainable infrastructure. The Launch of a Lifesaving Corridor The project is a powerful collaboration between aviati...

Three Houses, One Vision – How the UAE’s Abrahamic Family House is Redefining Inter-Faith Dialogue

  When you step onto the stone-plinth of the Abrahamic Family House on Saadiyat Island in Abu Dhabi, you are not just visiting a building. You are entering a bold statement: a mosque, a church and a synagogue standing side-by-side, equal in size and purpose, sharing common ground while respecting their separate faiths. A landmark of coexistence In early 2023 the UAE inaugurated this pioneering complex, inviting worshippers and visitors alike. The architecture — designed to give each of the three faith-homes the same external dimensions and to signal equality — allows each to express its own traditions while remaining visibly part of a unified vision. More than 200 nationalities live in the UAE, which means the project reflects a multicultural reality in which multiple faiths and identities coexist daily. Islam’s role in the vision For Muslim-majority audiences in the Gulf, the Abrahamic Family House sends a resonant message: Islam does not fear dialogue — it embraces it. The m...

The World's New Safe Harbour? Why Global Capital is Flowing to the UAE's Shores

  As storm clouds gather over the global economy, investors are searching for a safe harbour. Their compasses, increasingly, are pointing towards the Arabian Gulf. The International Monetary Fund’s recent endorsement of the UAE—projecting a rise to 4.8% GDP growth in 2025—is a powerful signal that this nation has transcended its regional role to become a global player of immense strategic importance. This isn't just growth; it's a geopolitical realignment, positioning the UAE as a stable, connected, and opportunistic hub in a fractured world. For European partners, the UAE’s appeal is multifaceted. Its rapid ascent as a regulated hub for virtual assets and fintech provides a perfect bridge for European digital finance initiatives seeking a forward-looking testing ground. Simultaneously, the UAE’s ambitious climate agenda, crystallized in its pioneering Climate Law and legacy of hosting COP28, creates a powerful synergy with the European Green Deal and the continent's massiv...
