The reduced water consumption has consequently helped free up additional water supply for new developments, while lessening the burden on the waste water treatment plants.
Ali Bin Towaih, Executive Director of SEED, said:
"Water conservation measures play a vital role in preserving our environment and have enormous significance, particularly in view of the region's extreme climatic conditions. With the new sewage reduction initiative, Tecom Investments aims to enhance the ongoing water conservation programme and is looking forward to launching more environment-friendly initiatives in the future."
Malek Sultan Al Malek, Executive Director of Dubai Internet City, said:
"We are delighted with the success in implementing the water conservation programme at Dubai Internet City. As the region's leading managed ICT cluster, it is vital for Dubai Internet City to demonstrate its commitment to green-friendly measures that lead to cost reduction while preserving the environment. We are keen to launch more such initiatives in the future."
Over the past two years, Tecom Investments has taken a proactive approach to reducing its carbon footprint in the region. Among some of its notable initiatives, it recently became the first-ever corporation to implement a Sustainable Development Policy, providing a comprehensive guideline for all Tecom buildings to reduce utility costs. Through a range of energy and water conservation as well as recycling programmes, Tecom Investments further validates its commitment to endorsing green-friendly measures.
