(MENAFN) Abu Dhabi Water and Electricity Company (ADWEC) said that it expects that water and power generation in the UAE will be separated in the future as the result of new technology, Gulf Business reported.
The company said that it also predicts a shift to water membrane technology for water production as well as an increase in solar power and combined cycle gas generation.
These new decoupling technologies, which include the Membrane technology and Reverse Osmosis (RO) are an alternative cheaper, less energy intensive solutions that can be positioned anywhere along a country’s coast, are currently being explored by the company to be used in the future in the UAE.
‘The introduction of nuclear power and the increasing cost competitiveness of solar power, which we have seen over the past five years, has the potential for efficient decoupling of power and water production,’ ADWEC’s Managing Director said.
