5G-Advanced: e& UAE sets new world record for connectivity
Image credit: WAM/Website e& UAE, the flagship telecom arm of e&, has set a new world record for connectivity by achieving an uplink (UL) speed of 600Mbps on a live 5G network—a major milestone in the evolution of 5G-Advanced. Read- This achievement was enabled by aggregating FR1 bands at 2100MHz and C-band, paired with uplink 3Tx (three transmit antennas) on commercial Customer Premises Equipment (CPE) at a live 5G site. The deployment is fully compliant with 3GPP Release 17 standards, This record-breaking uplink speed represents a cornerstone of 5G-Advanced, empowering uplink-heavy applications with unmatched performance. By leveraging FR1 band aggregation and cutting-edge uplink technology, e& UAE has established a new global benchmark for 5G excellence. Abdulrahman Al Humaidan, Vice President of Fixed Access Network at e& UAE, stated: 'e& UAE's world-record 600Mbps uplink speed is a strategic step forward, catalysing a new era of hyper-fast, uplink-driven digital innovation. This is not just a technological milestone—it's a launchpad for reshaping the digital world and solidifying the UAE's role as a global tech leader.' A new era for enterprise and smart infrastructure The 600Mbps uplink enables a new wave of connectivity, enhancing uplink-intensive applications across both business and consumer landscapes. Enterprises can now enable real-time sensor data uploads in smart factories and logistics hubs, advancing AI-driven automation and predictive analytics. Cloud-hosted collaboration will also benefit, supporting instant uploads for 3D modelling, augmented reality (AR), and virtual reality (VR) workflows, driving the next wave of digital creativity. Uplink-focused solutions like live video analytics, smart city monitoring, and drone surveillance will thrive, thanks to instant data uploads for mission-critical decisions. Empowering everyday users in the 5G-advanced world For consumers, this leap forward will transform digital lifestyles—allowing content creators to upload 8K videos and stream immersive content to platforms like YouTube and TikTok in seconds. Gamers will enjoy lag-free cloud gaming, while smart homes will instantly upload high-definition footage and IoT data, boosting efficiency and responsiveness. Applications such as virtual event hosting and user-generated AR content will flourish, offering faster, richer, and more immersive digital experiences. Based on 3GPP Release 17, this deployment takes advantage of enhanced mobile broadband (eMBB) and ultra-reliable low-latency communications (URLLC), laying the groundwork for scalable, energy-efficient 5G networks. With this successful deployment on a commercial CPE and a live 5G site, e& UAE has demonstrated its ability to turn vision into reality. By optimizing FR1 2100MHz and C-band with Uplink 3Tx, the company is paving the way toward a hyper-connected future. Once such CPEs become widely available, e& will be well-positioned to empower both consumers and enterprises with next-generation connectivity.

Dewa adds 800MW of clean energy production capacity to its energy mix in 2025
The total production capacity of the Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Solar Park has increased to 3,860 megawatts (MW), using photovoltaic (PV) solar panels and concentrated solar power (CSP) technologies. Since the beginning of this year, DEWA has added 800MW from the sixth phase of the solar park, bringing clean energy's share to approximately 21.5% of its total production capacity. 'The Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Solar Park is our key project to achieve the Dubai Clean Energy Strategy 2050 and the Dubai Net Zero Carbon Emissions Strategy 2050, which aim to provide 100% of the emirate's energy production capacity from clean sources by 2050. By 2030, the solar park's production capacity will reach 7,260MW, with clean energy making up 34% of DEWA's energy mix. This will reduce approximately eight million tonnes of carbon emissions annually,' said Saeed Mohammed Al Tayer, MD & CEO of Dubai Electricity and Water Authority (Dewa). The first phase of the Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Solar Park, with a capacity of 13MW using PV solar panels, was commissioned in October 2013. In March 2017, the second phase, with a capacity of 200MW, was inaugurated. It also uses PV technology and was the first solar energy project of its kind in the region based on the independent power producer (IPP) model. In November 2020, the third phase of the solar park was inaugurated with a capacity of 800MW. This phase, also using PV technology, was the first in the Middle East and North Africa to use single-axis solar tracking to enhance energy generation. In December 2023, the fourth phase of the solar park was inaugurated with a total capacity of 950MW, combining CSP and PV panels. It uses three hybrid technologies to produce clean energy: 600MW from a parabolic basin complex, 100MW from a solar power tower and 250MW from PV solar panels. In June 2023, the fifth phase, with a capacity of 900MW, was inaugurated using photovoltaic panels. DEWA is currently working to complete the sixth phase of the solar park, with a capacity of 1,800MW using PV panels. DEWA has invited international developers to participate in the implementation of the seventh phase of the Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Solar Park, which will have a capacity of 1,600MW. This phase, which is expandable to 2,000MW, will utilise PV solar panels and a battery energy storage system with a capacity of 1,000MW for six hours, providing a total storage capacity of 6,000 megawatt-hours. This will make it one of the world's largest solar-plus-storage projects. The phase will be implemented under the IPP model.
