Moro Hub, a wholly-owned subsidiary of DEWA announced the launch of the Middle East’s first certified Tier-III Green Data Centre powered by solar energy located at Al-Yalayis, Dubai at the just concluded virtual edition of WETEX.
HE Saeed Mohammad Al Tayer, MD and CEO of DEWA said “We work in line with the vision and directives of HH Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai. The launch of the Middle East’s first solar-powered Green Data Centre represents a new achievement for Moro Hub. This reinforces the Scale 360 Initiative that the UAE has signed as the first country in the world, in collaboration with the World Economic Forum to benefit from technology innovation and advanced solutions in accelerating the circular economy; while using fewer natural resources and reducing pollution to mitigate climate change.”
“Dubai continues to maintain its leading position with sustainable and futuristic solutions. This is in alignment with the government plans and strategies including the UAE Centennial 2071, which aims to make the UAE the world’s leading nation. It is also in line with the Dubai 10X initiative to transform and position Dubai ahead of other cities around the world by 10 years; which also aligns with the objectives of Dubai Clean Energy Strategy 2050 to provide 75 percent of Dubai’s total power capacity from clean energy by 2050,” added Al Tayer.
The first certified Tier-III new Green Data Centre will be leveraged to offer digital products and services utilising Fourth Industrial Revolution technologies such as cloud services, IoT and AI.
