The order was secured from Green EPC (a Utico FZC subsidiary) who is the prime EPC contractor for this project.

The Dubai Electricity and Water Authority (DEWA) selected Utico FZC as the preferred bidder to build the SWRO plant and operate it over a period of 35 years, under the independent water producer (IWP) model, wherein DEWA will off-take 100 percent of water from this plant.

The desalination plant is planned to be commissioned in phases by March 2024 and will be the largest IWP in Dubai.

The project is in the direction of Dubai’s Clean Energy Strategy 2050 initiative to maximize the use of green energy for production of desalinated water and aims at using solar power to supplement the power requirement of the plant during day time.
