Dubai's DEWA Opens Dhs500m Warsan Complex And Al Qusais Control Centre.

The Dubai Electricity & Water Authority (DEWA) opened its new Dhs500 million Warsan Complex and Al Qusais Control Centre on Wednesday, in a bid to cater to the emirate's growing energy needs.

Spread across 650,159 sq ft, the Warsan Complex includes two transmission and distribution control centres and an administrative building which can accommodate up to 2,350 employees.

One of the control centres is for managing power generation and transmission of the 132/400 kV networks in coordination with the Jebel Ali plants. The second works on monitoring and managing the networks to maintain continued improvement.

The implemented systems in the control centres can exchange data and tasks in case of emergency, and have six times the capacity compared to the old systems, DEWA said in a statement.
