1 FEDERAL ELECTRICITY AND WATER AUTHORITY UNITED ARAB EMIRATES

2 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 RAS AL KHAIMAH UM AL QUWAIN FUJAIRAH DHAID (WEST) (NORTH) (WEST) (EAST) (CENTRAL)

3 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.

11 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.
