  Welcome to Innovation Today. We have exciting
• 0:03
  news about a groundbreaking digital innovation
• 0:05
  from DEWA. Dubai Electricity and Water Authority
• 0:10
  has been granted a copyright for an innovative
• 0:13
  digital application designed to manage and plan
• 0:16
  distributed solar photovoltaic systems. The application
• 0:21
  integrates data related to weather conditions
• 0:23
  and energy operational performance into a comprehensive
• 0:27
  digital simulation system and links it directly
• 0:31
  to the Shams Dubai master database. What did
• 0:35
  His Excellency say about this achievement? His
• 0:38
  Excellency Saeed Mohammed Al -Tayr, MD and CEO
• 0:42
  of Diwa, said, At Diwa, we continue to utilize
• 0:46
  advanced digital solutions and technological
• 0:49
  innovation to enhance the readiness of Dubai's
• 0:52
  energy system, in line with the vision of the
• 0:55
  WISE leadership to make the Emirate a global
• 0:58
  model for sustainability and innovation. This
• 1:01
  innovative digital application is a significant
• 1:04
  addition to the smart planning system as it enables
• 1:08
  the optimal use of weather and operational data
• 1:11
  to support the systematic expansion of distributed
• 1:14
  solar energy, enhancing network efficiency and
• 1:18
  supporting the objectives of the Dubai Clean
• 1:21
  Energy Strategy 2050 and the Dubai Net Zero Carbon
• 1:26
  Emissions Strategy 2050. What are the key benefits
• 1:30
  of this application? Altair added, this innovative
• 1:34
  digital application is an interactive advanced
• 1:37
  tool that promotes intelligent planning of distributed
• 1:40
  PV systems by providing accurate and integrated
• 1:44
  grid -level data, supporting faster and more
• 1:47
  efficient decision making. This innovative digital
• 1:51
  application contributes to enhancing the readiness
• 1:54
  of the distribution network to accommodate the
• 1:57
  growing expansion of distributed solar energy
• 2:00
  plants. It also consolidates a data -driven planning
• 2:03
  approach to ensure the sustainability and reliability
• 2:07
  of Dubai's energy system. What are the technical
• 2:10
  capabilities? The innovative digital application
• 2:14
  enables the generation of comprehensive and more
• 2:17
  specific datasets for existing and proposed PV
• 2:21
  installations at any point on the distribution
• 2:24
  network up to main 132 -11 kV substations over
• 2:30
  any specified timeframe. This capability provides
• 2:34
  advanced support for planning solar energy projects
• 2:37
  and accurately assessing their operational impact
• 2:41
  on the electrical grid. What's the current status?
• 2:44
  The innovative digital application has been granted
• 2:47
  a UAE copyright and is currently in use at DEWA's
• 2:51
  Power and Water Planning Division. The strategic
• 2:55
  significance lies in its ability to generate
• 2:57
  datasets digitally in only a few clicks, and
• 3:01
  it's highly flexible, as its scope can be expanded
• 3:04
  to integrate other types of data sources and
• 3:07
  generate different datasets. A remarkable innovation
• 3:11
  driving Dubai's sustainable energy future. Thank
• 3:14
  you for listening.
