DUBAI, 5th February, 2024 (WAM) -- Saeed Mohammed Al Tayer, MD and 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 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 wise leadership's vision He added
that DEWA has completed the digital integration of more than 90 projects with
government and private organisations to provide seamless, proactive, and integrated
services that can be easily completed anytime, anywhere, easily and safely This
supports the UAE Digital Government Strategy 2025, the Dubai Digital Strategy, and
Dubai's' Services 360' policy Mohammed Salem Al Mana, Executive Vice President of
Billing Services at DEWA, noted that the total number of Ejari contracts whose data
DEWA received in 2023 was 742,035 This included 324,766 new contracts and 417,269
renewed contracts From the service's first launch in 2015 until the end of 2023, the total
number of new and renewed Ejari contracts that DEWA receive their data reached
3,589,038 The integration with Ejari also enables automatic updates of the annual rent
value in DEWA's system during annual renewals This, in turn, updates the housing fees,
eliminating the need for customers to visit Dubai Municipality to adjust the yearly rent
value
