FEDERAL ELECTRICITY AND WATER AUTHORITY
UNITED ARAB EMIRATES
INTRODUCTION
FEDERAL ELECTRICITY AND WATER AUTHORITY (FEWA) IS ONE OF THE
UTILITY IN THE UNITED ARAB EMIRATES RESPONSIBLE FOR THE SUPPLY AND
DISTRIBUTION OF ELECTRICITY AND WATER IN THE NORTHERN EMIRATES.
THE AREAS OF NORTHERN EMIRATES COVERED BY FEWA ARE THE
FOLLOWING
AJMAN (WEST)
RAS AL KHAIMAH (NORTH)
UM AL QUWAIN (WEST)
FUJAIRAH (EAST)
DHAID (CENTRAL)
AMI PILOT PROJECT INITIATIVE BY FEWA
THE IDEA OF A IMPLEMENTING AN AUTOMATIC METER READING (AMR) PILOT PROJECT WAS INITIATED IN THE YEAR 2007 BY THE MANAGEMENT OF FEWA.
FEWA ATTENDED VARIOUS PRESENTATIONS, SEMINARS AND VISITED INSTALLATIONS TO UNDERSTAND THE TECHNLOGY THAT WAS AVAILABLE.
THE PILOT PROJECT IMPLEMENTATION WAS DELAYED DUE TO ONE
MAIN REASON …..….
“THERE WAS NO CLEAR AND SATISFACTORY INTEROPERABLE PROTOCOL THAT
WAS WELL DEFINED THAT COULD PROVIDE US WITH AN OPEN SYSTEM”
TODAY THE TECHNOLOGY HAS ADVANCED AND THERE IS A CLEAR DIRECTION
TOWARDS INTEROPERABILITY AND OPEN SYSTEMS.
FEWA BY WAY OF THE PILOT PROJECT IMPLEMENTATION WILL BE WELL
PLACED TO TAKE INTO CONSIDERATION FUTURE EVOVLING TECHNOLOGIES
IN THIS FIELD DURING THE FINAL ROLL OUTS.

IDIS
Why is it considered by FEWA in Pilot Project ??
The IDIS group defines DLMS/COSEM compliant interoperability parameters
between
•Water meters and Electricity meters (Mbus protocol)
•Electricity meters and Data Concentrators (DLMS/COSEM Protocol)
•Data Concentrators and AMI MDM (DLMS/COSEM Protocol)
Extensive tests are already conducted by ERDF in France for interoperability
Using the IDIS interoperable standards for the FEWA pilot
project will save time and efforts in the open systems testing.
FEWA do not intend to have a specialized team or hire a third
party consultant for interoperable tests between various
vendors.
