The fuel surcharge for electricity and water has been reduced in Dubai with a view to increasing the share of renewable and clean energy in Dubai’s energy mix, announced H.H. Sheikh Ahmed bin Saeed Al Maktoum, Chairman of the Dubai Supreme Council of Energy.
From now on, fuel surcharge for electricity will be 5 fils per kilowatt hour instead of 6.5 fils. Fuel surcharge for water will be 0.4 fils for Imperial Gallon instead of 0.6 fils currently. This will help to provide electricity and water services at globally competitive prices. The savings achieved in fuel consumption as a result of the increase in solar energy production will be passed on to customers. The fuel surcharge reduction will be applied on electricity and water bills from December 1, 2020.
Saeed Mohammed Al Tayer, MD & CEO of Dubai Electricity and Water Authority, said DEWA plans to increase the share of renewable and clean energy and provide 75 percent of Dubai’s energy capacity from clean energy sources by 2050 through the Dubai Clean Energy Strategy 2050. With the increase in the share of clean energy capacity in Dubai’s energy mix to around 9 percent, fuel consumption has decreased and this savings will be reflected in customers’ bills, he added.
