The 28th edition of the Water, Energy, Technology and Environment Exhibition (WETEX) concluded in Dubai after bringing together thousands of companies, policymakers and technology providers to showcase solutions in clean energy, water, sustainability and digital transformation.

Organised by Dubai Electricity and Water Authority (DEWA) from October 20 to 22 at the Dubai World Trade Centre, the exhibition hosted 3,000 companies from 60 countries, alongside 13 international pavilions representing markets including Germany, Italy, Belgium, China, India, Türkiye, and South Korea.

A key theme throughout the event was the role of innovation and technology in supporting resilient, low-carbon cities. Exhibitors showcased a range of solutions spanning renewable energy, energy storage, artificial intelligence, smart buildings, district cooling, water management and sustainable infrastructure.

DEWA also used the event as a platform to strengthen international collaboration, signing four memorandums of understanding through DEWA International with EDF Power Solutions, China Energy International Group, Capital Dynamics and Tata Consultancy Services (TCS). 

Speaking during the event, Saeed Mohammed Al Tayer, MD and CEO of DEWA and Founder and Chairman of WETEX, said the exhibition continues to support the UAE’s sustainability ambitions by connecting emerging technologies with investment opportunities and strategic partnerships.
