Dubai solar power capacity surges to 3,860MW as clean energy share hits 21.5%
Dubai Electricity and Water Authority (DEWA) has announced a major milestone in its renewable energy drive, revealing that the Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Solar Park has reached a total production capacity of 3,860 megawatts (MW). The park uses a mix of photovoltaic (PV) solar panels and concentrated solar power (CSP) technologies to deliver clean electricity to the emirate. According to Saeed Mohammed Al Tayer, MD and CEO of DEWA, the expansion includes an additional 800MW from the park's sixth phase, boosting clean energy's share to approximately 21.5 per cent of DEWA's overall generation capacity. Solar energy in Dubai Al Tayer said: 'Our strategies and action plans are inspired by the vision and directives of His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President, Prime Minister, and Ruler of Dubai, to accelerate the transition towards a sustainable green economy and enhance Dubai's position as a leading global hub for clean and renewable energy. 'The Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Solar Park is our key project to realise this vision and achieve the Dubai Clean Energy Strategy 2050 and the Dubai Net Zero Carbon Emissions Strategy 2050, which aim to provide 100 per cent 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 per cent of DEWA's energy mix. This will reduce approximately eight million tonnes of carbon emissions annually'. The Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Solar Park is the world's largest single-site solar project. Once complete, it is expected to reduce carbon emissions by approximately eight million tonnes annually. Since its inception in 2013 with a modest 13MW first phase, the solar park has undergone a series of ambitious expansions: 2017: 200MW second phase inaugurated, the region's first under the Independent Power Producer (IPP) model 2020: 800MW third phase launched using PV technology with single-axis tracking – a regional first 2023: 950MW fourth phase combined CSP and PV, including a 100MW solar tower and a 600MW parabolic basin system 2023: 900MW fifth phase added using PV panels 2024–2025: Sixth phase (1,800MW) currently under development. DEWA has invited global developers to participate in the seventh phase, which will feature 1,600MW of PV capacity and a 1,000MW/6,000MWh battery energy storage system—set to become one of the largest solar-plus-storage projects in the world. Expandable to 2,000MW, this phase will further enhance grid reliability and sustainability and will also be developed under the IPP model.

e& UAE sets world record with 600Mbps uplink on live 5G network
e& UAE has set a world-record uplink speed of 600Mbps on a live 5G network, solidifying the UAE's leadership in next-generation connectivity. The record was set using FR1 band aggregation at 2100MHz and C-band, along with Uplink 3Tx (three transmit antennas), and tested on a commercial Customer Premises Equipment (CPE) device. The setup is fully compliant with 3GPP Release 17 standards, a key foundation of the 5G-Advanced technology roadmap. e& UAE sets 5G network speed world record Abdulrahman Al Humaidan, Vice President/Fixed Access Network at e& UAE, said: 'e& UAE's world-record 600Mbps uplink speed is a strategic move forward, stimulating the global tech landscape with a new era of hyper-fast, uplink-driven digital innovation. 'This isn't just a technological breakthrough, it's a launchpad for businesses and individuals to reshape the digital world, cementing the UAE as a global tech leader.' Why Uplink Speed Matters More Than Ever While much of the early 5G focus has been on download speeds, uplink capacity is increasingly critical for modern digital applications. The 600Mbps uplink milestone opens the door to a new generation of uplink-heavy use cases, from real-time drone surveillance and smart city video analytics, to immersive cloud-hosted AR/VR, and instant 8K video uploads for content creators. Enterprises will benefit from real-time data uploads from smart factories, logistics hubs, and IoT networks—fueling AI-driven automation and predictive analytics. Content creators can instantly stream or upload ultra-HD videos to platforms like YouTube, TikTok, and Twitch. Gamers will enjoy lag-free cloud gaming, and smart homes will operate more seamlessly with rapid uploads of IoT data and high-def video. Virtual event hosts and user-generated AR experiences will become more interactive, responsive, and engaging. Built on the latest 3GPP Release 17, this deployment integrates enhanced mobile broadband (eMBB) and ultra-reliable low-latency communications (URLLC), showcasing how 5G-Advanced is evolving to meet the demands of a fully connected world. With this achievement, e& UAE has set a global benchmark for uplink performance in the FR1 spectrum, pushing the boundaries of what's possible in real-world 5G deployments.
