Addressing Air Conditioning Demand through Innovative DSM Strategies in Abu Dhabi

As Abu Dhabi faces overwhelming electricity consumption, with households using nearly three times more than their Southern USA counterparts, innovative Demand-Side Management (DSM) strategies are crucial. This project, part of the EBTIC joint venture between Etisalat and British Telecom, aims to harness cutting-edge research to develop effective DSM approaches. With ongoing research focused on fields such as grid computing, intelligent campus systems, and green ICT, the goal is to cultivate a culture of innovation and optimize energy use in a rapidly growing emirate.

    2. A few words about EBTIC “Joint venture” between Etisalat and British Telecom, in partnership with Khalifa University About 20 experienced researchers, MSc level and above High-level objective: to develop a culture of innovation and capability for research in Etisalat and in the UAE Five on-going research themes: Business Modeling Systems and Grid Computing Network Design and Optimisation The Intelligent Campus (iCampus) Next-Generation Healthcare and Chronic Disease Management (I-CARE) Computational Sustainability and Green ICT

    3. A huge problem means huge opportunities At 41,000 kWh per account per year, the average Abu Dhabi household consumes almost three times as much electricity as the Southern USA’s and over six times more than Singapore’s! (www.rsb.gov.ae) “While the rate of electricity demand growth slows in other emirates, consumption in the UAE’s biggest emirate will double by 2015” (MEED)
