Talk:ACWA Power

Please remove: "ACWA Power is a developer, investor, co-owner and operator of a portfolio of power generation and desalinated water production plants currently with presence in 10 countries including in the Middle East and North Africa, Southern Africa and South East Asia regions.

Please remove:: "Its energy portfolio includes efficient combined cycle power plants, solar (Photovoltaic PV) and Concentrated Solar Power (CSP), geothermal, wind, waste-to-energy (WtE) and coal pollution mitigation.

And replace with: Its energy portfolio includes efficient combined cycle power plants^[1], solar (photovoltaic [PV] and concentrated solar power [CSP])^[2], wind^[3], desalination plants^[4], and green hydrogen projects^[5].

Reason for change: Existing information is outdated and incomplete.

 Done Removing the geothermal, waste-to-energy and coal pollution mitigation items was not done without consideration, since it's hard to prove a negative, but I looked on the AWCA web site and in available sourcing, and couldn't find anything that suggested those projects still existed. I corrected the Bloomberg link and left it in, but I can't access the data. Anyone with access to Bloomberg should be able to confirm the info. STEMinfo (talk) 22:42, 23 August 2023 (UTC)

Hi @STEMinfo, thanks very much for your assistance throughout this process. It's much appreciated.

Just one more small request, it seems this section is duplicated in the article. Would you please remove the duplicate? MferrariACWA (talk) 16:09, 24 August 2023 (UTC)

My error. Fixed. And for future use @MferrariACWA:, typing the @ doesn't ping people. You need to use one of the {{re|username}}, {{ping|username}} or {{u|username}} templates. That generates the @username text you're used to seeing, while pinging people. STEMinfo (talk) 19:14, 24 August 2023 (UTC)

@STEMinfo: got it, thanks again MferrariACWA (talk) 19:23, 24 August 2023 (UTC)

Please update this figure in the first paragraph: 6.8 million m3/day of desalinated water.

The new figure is: 7.6 million m3/day of desalinated water. ^[1]

Reason for change: The figure has increased with the addition of the Hassyan IWP desalination plant to ACWA Power's portfolio. MferrariACWA (talk) 12:09, 27 August 2023 (UTC)

The water desalination figure in the 'background' section needs to be updated.

Please replace: "...produce 6.8 million m3/day of desalinated water."

With: "...produce 7.6 million m3/day of desalinated water. ^[1]"

Reason for change: The figure has increased with the addition of the Hassyan IWP in Dubai to ACWA Power's portfolio.

The investment value of ACWA Power's portfolio has now increased and needs to be updated.

Please replace "an investment value in excess of USD 74.8 billion"

With: "an investment value in excess of USD 79.4 billion.^[1]"

Thanks, MferrariACWA (talk) 08:23, 27 September 2023 (UTC)

Declined An investment value of 79.4 billion is not negated by the phrase "an investment value in excess of USD 74.8 billion" because the figure of 79.4 billion is a number in excess of 74.8 billion. Thus, the current figure of "in excess of USD 74.8 billion" is still valid. Regards,  Spintendo  19:49, 27 September 2023 (UTC)

Hi, would very much appreciate if the 'structure' section could be updated to include ACWA Power's vice chairman and managing director Raad Al Saady.

Please update with: "ACWA Power's board of directors is chaired by Mohammad Abdullah Abunayyan,^[1] with Raad Al Saady as its Vice Chairman and Managing Director,^[2] and Marco Arcelli as its CEO.^[3].
