The Dhabi Department of Energy has received seven consortia that bids for the Taweela desalination plant mega-project in Abu Dhabi, UAE. The bidders for the project are:
The Acwa Power of Saudi Arabia, along with its partner Abengoa, placed the lowest bid using the higher electricity tariff at AED8.26 (US$2.25) per 1,000 gallons (4.55 m3); or US$0.49 per cube. The next best bid under that electricity price was 4 percent higher from partners Engie and Marubeni at AED8.26 (US$2.248) per TIG.
The Abu Dhabi project, for reverse osmosis capacity of 200 million imperial gallons a day (909,000 m3/d) at Taweela power and water complex, will raise the emirate’s proportion of desalinated water produced by reverse osmosis from 13 per cent today to 30 per cent by 2022.
