据油气新闻网站9月16日阿布扎比报道 联邦竞争力和统计局公布的数据显示，2018年阿联酋水、废水和电力部门的总产出增长了2.7%，达到558亿迪拉姆（150亿美元），而前一年为543亿迪拉姆。
这主要是由于人口激增和政府不断努力通过清洁能源寻找有效的替代能源，同时启动了国家大型项目，如阿联酋国家电网项目（ENG）所致。
根据官方统计，该行业的总产出从2014年的388亿迪拉姆增长到2015年底的465亿迪拉姆左右。2016年，该行业保持了487亿迪拉姆的增长，然后在下一年飙升至543亿迪拉姆。
ENG项目的主要优点之一是由于各个公用设施系统的装机备用容量减少，从而节省了资金。联邦竞争力和统计局的报告指出，这使得电力部门之间能够进行商业性的电力转移。
它补充称，ENG互联系统还提供了更强大的能力来抵御重大或突发性干扰，例如生产单元的损失、电网元件的故障和无论由于停电还是自然灾害所导致的几种类型的危机。

UAE gross output of water, electricity hits $15bn in 2018
The gross output of the water, wastewater and electricity sector in the UAE grew 2.7 per cent in 2018 to Dh55.8 billion ($15 billion) when compared to Dh54.3 billion the year before, according to figures released by the Federal Competitiveness And Statistics Authority.
This is mainly being driven by the booming population and the government's continuous efforts to find efficient alternatives through clean energy sources and launching national mega projects such as the Emirates National Grid project (ENG).
According to official statistics, the sector's gross output grew from Dh38.8 billion in 2014 to around Dh46.5 billion by the end of 2015. In 2016 the sector sustained its growth to Dh48.7 billion before surging to Dh54.3 billion the next year.
One of the main advantages of the ENG project is the financial savings as a result of the reduction in installed reserve capacity
