Source basis

EWEC describes itself as Abu Dhabi's sole procurer and supplier of water and electricity, with responsibility for demand forecasting, capacity planning, purchasing and system despatch. Its Al Taweelah page identifies the existing power-and-water complex and the 909,000 m3/day Taweelah RO plant. EWEC is the planning, procurement and offtake counterparty; project companies, developers and EPC consortia own and deliver the individual facilities. The Taweelah C award establishes the developer group and power purchase agreement, but it does not define a seawater intake, cooling-water outfall, marine contractor or offshore construction package.
