In line with its efforts to stimulate business practices, the Dubai Electricity and Water Authority (DEWA) has released the second edition of its Infrastructure Compliance Certificate (No Objection Certificate) Technical Manual, which will serve as a reference material for contractors, consultants, and developers accredited by DEWA
The manual is part of DEWA's efforts to promote business in the emirate. It helps streamline and expedite the process of acquiring electricity and water services in accordance with the best international standards and practices regarding reliability, quality, and efficiency.
In this edition, DEWA has added 17 new types of projects, bringing the total number of projects to 67. It also includes specific standards for water supply facilities and updated technical specifications and protection details for new power supply facilities.
To enrich their experience, DEWA offers consultants and contractors a package of innovative programs and services, including:
- Al Namoos service
- Marafeq smart feature
- Ownek information initiative (the Arabic equivalent of "your help").
They can also conduct their transactions through the DEWA smart application or website without the need to visit DEWA customer service centers.
Saeed Mohammed Al Tayer, a Doctor of Medical Sciences and CEO of DEWA, said: "Due to the increasing number of infrastructure projects in Dubai and the increasing demand for electricity and water services, we are committed to keeping pace with the emirate's economic prosperity and the increase in population, and to support Dubai Economic Agenda D33, which aims to double the size of Dubai's economy over the next decade and to consolidate its position among the top three global cities."
