Beeah and Dewa nab awards for innovation and safety
Beeah’s Sharjah waste-to-energy facility received the Emirati Energy Ministry’s Research and Innovation Award, the environmental management company said in a tweet. The award — given under the category of “Balanced National Energy” — recognizes the facility’s contribution to zero waste, and its support of national renewables targets.
The Dubai Electricity and Water Authority (Dewa) received the British Safety Council’s Supreme Achievement Award 2022, according to a statement last week. The UAE entity was recognized after having earned the Sword of Honor for Health and Safety and the Globe of Honour for Environment for 11 consecutive years. A delegation from Dewa visited Lithuania last month to discuss the development of a nanosatellite intended to support the digitalization of the country’s power networks and facilitate the roll-out of smart grids and EV charging stations.
