FOReWord By Anoop K Menon Editor, infrastructure Middle East

elcome to the second edition of POWER 21, which celebrates power and water industry leaders who exemplify stewardship, leadership and innovation in a business sector

which constitutes the lifeblood of economic activity and social wellbeing. Globally, the power and water sector is undergoing a gradual transformation as factors as varied as population growth, expanding carbon footprint, climate change, high energy demand and shorter business cycles force industry players to re-examine traditional ways of doing business. In the Middle East, the power and water sector is seeking new technologies and business models to deal with this transformation and its consequences such as emphasis on clean energy, bigger share of renewables in the energy mix, growth of water re-use in the industrial sector and regulatory drive towards energy efficiency. The profiles in this book capture this exciting phase by showcasing the companies and people behind it.You may or may not have heard of these companies but either way, we believe that a common thread that connects them is their ‘pioneering spirit’ and the attributes that represents – vision, diligence, innovation and ability to take risks. Again, in conclusion, I must reemphasise that POWER 21 is not a company ranking.The 19th position in this book is not the equivalent of a 19th rank. A company occupying the 8th position is not inferior to the one in the 10th position. Numbers have been used merely as a listing mechanism not a pecking order.This book, supported by the Dubai Electricity & Water Authority (DEWA), is an elegant celebration

of achievement and stewardship. We hope you enjoy reading this book as much as we enjoyed putting it together for you.

Earth Testing Good earthing is a prerequisite of efficient and safe electrical system operation. Megger pioneered the development of Earth Testing techniques and products, and offer a wide range of testers for earth resistance and resistivity.

Insulation Testing Regular insulation resistance testing is one of the most cost effective methods of identifying ageing in electrical equipment and with over 60% of equipment failures being ascribed to insulation breakdown, it is a key area to monitor for high levels of customer satisfaction. Accurate and reliable condition assessment of insulations in transformers, bushings, generators and cables is essential to substation maintenance.

INFRASTRUCTURE MIDDLE EAST POWER 21

Diagnostic insulation testing systems for transformers maximise the outcome of maintenance activities allowing for load and service life optimisation. Using this advanced equipment makes it possible to assess the condition of the oil and solid insulation, assess the moisture level in the solid insulation and identify other potential insulation problems.

Low Resistance Ohmmeters The operation of electrical equipment depends on the controlled flow of current within the design parameters of a given piece of equipment. Measuring low resistance helps identity resistive elements that have increased above acceptable levels. n

An ABZ diesel generator is the intelligent supplement to existing mains connections – it simply switches on in critical situations. And if the power supply fails, the generator automatically takes over the power supply within 10 –15 seconds. Uninterrupted power supply units offer an indispensable protection against immediate mains interruptions and the hazards associated with the same, for example, loss of data. When the power supply fails, the uninterrupted power supply installation takes over the power supply until the supply from the diesel generator arrives.

energy savers Energy Savers promises a uniquely tailored solution for every client, which saves money, is good for the environment and continues to work for years into the future Energy Savers Corp. FZE is Dubai Silicon Oasis-based company that specialises in Energy Efficiency solutions for the built environment. We provide turn-key solutions allowing our hospitality, retail, industrial, residential and public sector customers to reduce operating costs by improving the energy efficiency of their premises. Nowhere has the greening trend seen a bigger sway than in our target markets. Existing buildings consume 40% of the total amount of energy produced worldwide. Much of that energy is needlessly wasted through inefficient design and operation. In the UAE the savings potential is even higher, due to the high amount of hospitality and retail assets, the high amount of built space per resident and visitor, the penchant for ambitious architecture, as well as the ambient conditions of the Gulf Region. With our solutions we can realise significant savings in energy costs of up to 60% at current costs levels. Energy Efficiency in this context does translate directly to real, tangible and sustainable cost savings. Energy Efficiency is here not just a “good thing” to do, but a smart move with direct impact on your bottom line. Evidence demonstrating retrofit value beyond energy costs savings is substantial, and examples abound, from direct cost savings on your utility bill to more “advanced” cost savings, such as reduced CO2 levels, improved life span of electrical devices, increased rental rates for energy-efficient buidlings to reputation, environmental leadership and decreased financial and regulatory risks. Martin Feustel, Energy Savers’ CEO, said:“The Middle East is pretty fertile ground for technologies and companies that can demonstrate ‘practical innovation’. The UAE has

We find that we can realize cost savings of 10% - 20% across the entire electrical load with these solutions. Using Voltage Optimisation with electrical equipment such as refrigeration or air cooling devices, 3-phase motors, high-intensity discharge or fluorescent lighting, will reduce energy consumption and create real financial savings. Voltage Optimisation also increases the service life of electrical equipment.

wago innovative connections

CATEGORY Interconnection & Automation

INFRASTRUCTURE MIDDLE EAST POWER 21

wago innovative connections Founded in 1951, WAGO Kontakttechnik GmbH & Co. KG changed the way electrical connections are made with the invention of Spring Pressure Connection Technology. Headquartered in Minden (Westphalia), Germany, WAGO leads the industry with innovations that make industry safer and more efficient. In 1995, for example, WAGO became one of the world’s premier automation suppliers with the introduction of the first modular, fieldbus-independent control system. WAGO products are used in more than 30 countries for a wide range of applications (e.g., power and process technology, building automation, machinery and equipment, as well as industrial and transportation applications). As of December 31, 2012, the WAGO group employs ca. 5,800 people in 78 subsidiaries, representations and production sites worldwide. In 2012, WAGO generated annual sales of €570 million in both “ELECTRICAL INTERCONNECTIONS” and “AUTOMATION” business divisions.

Electrical Interconnections WAGO's success story began with the simple, but revolutionary spring clamp. Known worldwide as CAGE CLAMP®, this innovation is renowned for user-friendly operation and ability to reliably provide a gas-tight connection between conductor and current bar. Because the clamping force automatically adjusts to the conductor size, it is absolutely maintenance-free. In contrast to screw-type connections, connection quality is virtually independent of operator skill, while providing faster operation. Today, WAGO offers the broadest range of screwless termination products thanks to continuous innovations and advancements in Spring Pressure Connection Technology used in new products.

The company achieved a real technological breakthrough in 2011 by discovering the most highly-biodegradable yet totally effective antiscalant polymer ever, which was made available under the Belclene brand for scale control in industrial water. This was followed by the development of Flocon 885, the industryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first and only highly biodegradable, phosphorus free, and nitrogen free antiscalant for RO membranes.

Biodegradable antiscalant for RO systems Flocon 885 is a neutralised aqueous solution of a specialised polycarboxylic acid that is highly effective in controlling the deposition of inorganic scale forming on membrane surfaces.

Flocon 885 is readily biodegradable in salt water conditions and inherently biodegradable in fresh water conditions. The product is booth phosphorus and nitrogen free. It can be monitored in the feed water and concentrate using a Fluor meter due to the inherent fluorescence properties. BWA says that it has excellent antiscalant properties for calcium carbonate and barium sulphate, as well as other good calcium and strontium sulphate and calcium fluoride inhibition. Flocon 885 is compatible with all major membranes and has international potable water approvals. Flocon 885 is not affected by chlorine or other oxidising biocides under normal conditions of use and may be used in membrane systems using chlorine and sodium metabisulphite. No special requirements are needed regarding materials of construction of dosing equipment. The recommended injection point is into the feed water downstream of any filtration equipment and cartridge filters. The additive is mixable with water in all proportions, and may be applied as the neat product or in permeate. Minimum dosing solution strength of 10% w/w is recommended.

skz german plastics center Applying German welding standards in HDPE piping Water has always been a treasured commodity in the desert. Today the sustainable supply of potable water in the six Gulf nations is at risk. The demand of potable water is expected to increase drastically and the GCC countries are trying to cover up by building additional desalination plants, but up to 50% of the potable water is wasted due to leaking piping systems. In order to improve this situation, many end-users have shifted from conventional piping systems like ductile iron (DI), steel, glass-reinforced plastic (GRP) to piping systems made of High Density Polyethylene (HDPE). This material is known for its advantages and in particular, the high service life expectations in combination with very low maintenance costs, which make this material a more favourable option. But despite the proven advantages, many network owners are still facing high leakage rates in their piping systems. In fact, the water infrastructure in the GCC countries is just a few decades old, but due to the lack of educated specialists the piping systems are not properly designed and installed. This results in heavy environmental impacts as well as financial losses throughout the region. SKZ German Plastics Center is addressing this alarming situation by providing training, education, testing and certification according to globally recognised German welding standards DVS and DVGW. SKZ has been operating as a non-profit organisation in the field of plastics for over 50 years. As the market leader, SKZ is training and certifying over 4,000 HDPE pipe welders every year for the German Technical and Scientific Association for Gas and Water (DVGW). In addition, SKZ is an approved institute for third party certification, testing and site supervision. In fact, SKZ is one of Europeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s largest accredited and certified institutes for quality assurance monitoring over 900 products for more than 400 companies.
