RSTEEL® RLA-lifting anchor and related accessories have been accredited and approved by DEWA (Dubai Electricity and Water Authority). RLA-lifting anchors are being utilized in their Hatta pumped storage hydro power plant -project, which is located in Hatta, Dubai.
Facts about the project:
- The project started on 2019 and it is the first of its kind in the GCC (Gulf Cooperation Council) region.
- The 250MW station will generate electricity by making use of the water stored in Hatta Dam and an upper reservoir that is being built in the mountain.
- It will have a storage capacity of 1,500 MWh and a life span of 80 years.
- During off-peak hours, advanced turbines will use clean energy to pump water from the dam to the upper reservoir. Turbines operated by the speed of the waterfall from the upper reservoir will be used to generate electricity through a 1.2 kilometer subterranean water canal, with high efficiency in power generation and storage of up to 78.9% and with a 90-second response to demand for electricity.
