Key facts and figures Jebel Ali Power Complex Location Jebel Ali, Dubai, United Arab Emirates Customer Dubai Electricity and Water Authority (DEWA) DEWA currently has an installed capacity of around 9,600 megawatts (MW) and produces 470 million gallons of desalinated water per day from its power complexes. Approximately 70 percent of DEWA’s installed capacity is powered by Siemens machines, and Siemens has been working with the authority for more than 30 years. Siemens Scope The Jebel Ali Power Plant and Desalination Complex produces around 7,800MW from seven stations, and forms the backbone of Dubai’s power supply. Siemens has supplied equipment to four of these stations – G, K, L2 and M. As Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM), Siemens has installed 18 gas turbines, two steam turbines and 19 generators to the complex since the early 1990s. Jebel Ali M Station Inaugurated in April 2013, DEWA’s M Station facility at Jebel Ali is the largest power and desalination plant in the United Arab Emirates, with the capacity to supply approximately one million households in Dubai with power generated from highly efficient Siemens gas turbines. Powered by six Siemens SGT5-4000F gas turbines and six SGen5-1000A series generators, the combined-cycle M Station power facility produces 2,060MW of electricity and 140 million gallons of desalinated water per day. In 2012 Siemens announced the signing of a USD450 million 12-year long-term service agreement for its equipment at the facility. Siemens has also implemented its Wet Compression technology at Jebel Ali M Station as a pilot project with DEWA. The bolt-on technology, which uses water injection to increase the power output of the gas turbine by reducing compressor inlet temperatures, is able to boost M Station’s power output by 15 per cent within 20 minutes. Crucially, the technology uses no extra fuel to realize this power increase. Together with previous installations of the technology - there are now 8 gas turbines equipped with Siemens Wet Compression at Jebel Ali - this provides the emirate of Dubai with up to 190MW of extra power during the summer months when demand for electricity reaches its peak. The Siemens Wet Compression solution has been successfully installed and operating in Jebel Ali Power Complex’s G unit since 2005 and in the K unit since early 2010, with the latter scooping DEWA a Dubai Government Excellence Award. © Siemens AG 2014.
