There Is A New Sail Shaped Building Coming To Dubai And It’s Seriously Smart

Avatar

Dubai Electricity and Water Authority (DEWA) has started construction of a new headquarters. The new building, named Al-Sheraa (Arabic for sail), will be the tallest, largest, and smartest net Zero Energy Building (ZEB) in the world. The Al-Sheraa building will have over a million square feet, over 200,000 square feet of land. It is being built in the heart of the Cultural Village in Al Jadaf. This latest achievement conforms Dubai’s global position as a role model for leading organisations in sustainability, innovation, and shaping the future.

The sail design is used to provide share and reduce heat in the courtyard areas 

According to Kaleej Times: ‘The building will use the latest technologies including Internet of Things (IoT), Big Data and Open Data, and Artificial Intelligence (AI). Robots will be used for cleaning and to provide security services. A smart app will alert the employees about the time they should leave their homes based on the traffic.’.
