The Latest on Dubai’s Energy Sector: DEWA’s Record-Breaking Performance
Dubai’s energy landscape is buzzing with exciting news, particularly from the Dubai Electricity and Water Authority (DEWA). Recently, DEWA reported its first half of 2025 results, showcasing impressive growth across key financial metrics. With a revenue of AED 14.6 billion, an EBITDA of AED 7.0 billion, and a net profit reaching AED 2.9 billion, it’s clear that DEWA is on an upward trajectory, reflecting both disciplined execution and increasing demand for electricity and water.
What’s driving this surge? For starters, DEWA’s efforts towards operational excellence and cost control have certainly paid off. Not only did they report a year-on-year revenue increase of 6.9%, but they also managed to trim down net finance costs by 15.45%. Moreover, DEWA is on a mission to contribute to environmental sustainability, aiming for a Net Zero Carbon target by 2050. This aligns perfectly with Dubai’s broader vision of a green economy, which is crucial as more people and businesses flock to this vibrant city.
The second quarter of 2025 was particularly noteworthy for DEWA, with a staggering AED 8.6 billion in revenue—up 9.8% YoY! The organization’s commitment to generating clean energy is remarkable, with a significant 19.46% of total energy generated coming from sustainable sources. This commitment not only supports Dubai’s environmental goals but also strengthens DEWA’s market position.
Not to be overlooked, the company has also invested AED 4.6 billion in capital expenditures, focusing on expanding generation capacity and enhancing infrastructure. This investment indicates DEWA’s long-term vision and commitment to meeting rising demand, which is a promising sign for current and future stakeholders.
This transparent reporting and proactive approach helps build trust with investors, and the recent dividend approval of AED 3.1 billion for the first half of 2025 further reinforces DEWA’s strong financial standing. As we look ahead, the expectation for continued growth in the second half of the year is optimistic, particularly as demand for energy and water remains robust.
