HE Saeed Mohammed Al Tayer, MD & CEO of Dubai Electricity and Water Authority (DEWA), announced that DEWA received a total
of 742,035 tenancy contract data in 2023, compared to 648,065 contracts in 2022, an increase of about 14.5%. This data included
new and renewed Ejari contracts from all customer categories. DEWA’s systems are electronically integrated with the Ejari system
from the Real Estate Regulatory Authority (RERA) of the Dubai Land Department. The tenant’s data is automatically transferred to
DEWA, an account number is created for new tenants, and electricity and water services are activated after paying the security
deposit through DEWA’s smart channels.

Al Tayer said that the notable increase in tenancy contracts in 2023 reflects Dubai’s position as a preferred destination for living,
working, entrepreneurship and tourism. Many factors contribute to providing a unique lifestyle for everyone living in Dubai, including
advanced infrastructure, easy access to services, and other elements that contribute to achieving the vision of the wise leadership
and support the ambitious goals of the Dubai Economic Agenda (D33), which aims to double the size of Dubai’s economy by 2033
and consolidate its position among the top three global cities.

“We are keen to continuously develop DEWA’s digital channels using the latest disruptive technologies of the Fourth Industrial
Revolution, including AI, blockchain, and others. By integrating our services with other government departments, DEWA provides
smart and comprehensive services that save customers’ time and effort, exceed their expectations, and enhance their happiness.
