Fujairah plant set to power up Northern Emirates - The National

A new power and water plant in Fujairah promises to turn the emirate into the UAE's northern hub for electricity and water production, at a time when its strategic importance is growing.

Not all of the 2,000 megawatts of electricity and 130 million gallons a day of drinking water the Fujairah F2 facility can produce at peak capacity will be for local consumption.

"Through this power plant, we can send electricity to anywhere on the UAE national grid," said Abdullah al Naimi, the director general of Abu Dhabi Water and Electricity Authority (Adwea) and the chief executive of Abu Dhabi National Energy, or Taqa.
