Etihad Energy Services Company (Etihad ESCO) has announced plans to install photovoltaic solar panels on the roofs of 5,000 Emirati-owned homes in Dubai.
With all contractors on board, site surveys have been completed and material procurement, mock-ups and outreach activities are currently in progress, the company said in a statement.
The project will see Etihad ESCO install 65,000 PV panels, 295,000 LED lights and 50,000 water savers at Emirati villas.
It said the light and water retrofit is expected to generate energy and water savings upon completion, with the installation of solar PVs alone set to save 31,102,500 kWh energy.
