SEWA enhances Sharjah’s electrical grid with completion of key transmission projects

The Sharjah Electricity, Water, and Gas Authority (SEWA) has completed several strategic projects aimed at enhancing the emirate’s energy transmission capabilities and stabilising the electrical grid. In 2024, over 19 projects were completed, including a 220kV station at Al Tay, and 33/11 kV units at Al Jadah and Souq Haraj. These efforts are part of Sewa’s ongoing commitment to improving energy infrastructure and boosting network efficiency, said the utility provider.

Among the key projects completed were the 220kV Airport Station, development work at Al-Tay Station for energy transmission, and upgrades at Wasit, Al-Shanouf, and Al-Ghubayba stations to enhance transmission efficiency. In addition, transformers at several main stations were modernised to ensure operational stability.

    Hamad Al Taniji, Director of the Energy Transmission Department said, “Several projects have been successfully completed in 2024, contributing to the development of electrical grid infrastructure and providing high-quality services that meet future needs. The authority’s commitment to achieving further excellence and innovation, ensuring the reliability of the electrical network in line with future developments and achieving the highest levels of performance and efficiency. Partial discharge detection systems (GIS PD) were also installed at both the Sports Centre Station and Al-Liyah 132kV Station, enhancing the reliability of the electrical system.”

    Moreover, the project to lower overhead lines in Al-Ma’ahid, Al-Hoshi, and Al-Tay areas was completed to support the Union Train project, a significant initiative for promoting sustainable transportation.

    Abdullah Al-Kous, Deputy Director of the Energy Transmission Department added, “Several energy transmission stations were completed and are now operational, including 33/11kV units in Al-Jadah, Souq Haraj, and Al Madina, which supply power to the Al-Milihah Dairy Project and surrounding areas. Network modifications were also made in Al Milihah, Al Madina, Al Rahmaniyah, and Al-Falah, along with upgrades in Al Tay.”

    A major achievement was the connection of the Al Hawel Emirates building using an advanced 33/0.415kV system, improving electrical protection and enhancing transmission and distribution systems for higher efficiency and reliability.
