The Dubai Supreme Council of Energy (DSCE), under the leadership of Sheikh Ahmed bin Saeed Al Maktoum, recently convened its 81st meeting virtually, with a focus on advancing sustainable development initiatives and promoting energy efficiency across the emirate.
The council reviewed updates of the Demand Side Management Strategy for 2030 and 2050, which set well-studied goals to reduce water and electricity consumption. The council also linked those goals to various initiatives and programs to propel Dubai’s sustainable development. Those initiatives include green building activities, building retrofits, efficient operation of industrial and government facilities, and leveraging treated wastewater, external lighting and cooling.
