Dubai Electricity & Water Authority (DEWA) – UAE – Best Practice Certification – 2026 (World’s First Gas Turbine Intelligent Controller)
DEWA partnered with Siemens Energy to co-design and deploy the world's first Gas Turbine Intelligent Controller (GTIC), an AI system that continuously detects performance degradation and automatically optimizes combustion parameters in real time, replacing periodic manual tuning by OEM specialists. Piloted in 2018 on a live turbine under real grid conditions, GTIC has since scaled to all 15 SGT-4000F turbines across DEWA's K, L2, and M stations.
