Phoenix Contact is in the midst of the increased awareness of the need and demand for new process engineering technologies, greater sustainability, smoother operation and in particular safety and security within the water management industry. Due to an increase in cyber-attacks, the issue of IT security has become a prime concern for operators of critical infrastructure.
The Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region is facing major challenges in water sustainability due to a huge gap between supply and demand. In fact, many factors play a significant role in triggering these challenges such as demographic changes, climate change, the approach to micro-pollutants, and many other environmental and political issues that could lead to further water depletion and deterioration of the region’s stability.
As a reliable partner in this field, Phoenix Contact Middle East recognizes the most effective course of action to tackle these challenges. The company has been actively working with other industry leaders in the region to spread awareness and knowledge of the importance of adopting the right automation solutions for Water and Wastewater Treatment. During last October, Phoenix Contact Middle East held multiple seminars in the region in collaboration with other technology leaders in the field. The seminars held in the United Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia shed light on the growing problem of water scarcity, and shared expert knowledge on water conservation and wastewater treatment by a high caliber of industry professionals.
Advanced system solutions for water supply and wastewater treatment are available at Phoenix Contact. The challenge now is to accelerate the adoption of these innovative solutions to enable a more sustainable management of the region’s water resources.

Photovoltaic (PV) systems have become an important and established source of power, with a current installed capacity of approximately 230 gigawatts worldwide. In the Middle East alone, 11 gigawatts projects have been announced that are either in the bidding or the pre-qualification stage. The main driver for adopting solar and renewables in the region is the low prices of solar energy that led policy makers and industry leaders to take a number of steps towards increasing and accelerating the adoption of it.
First of all, to enhance the efficiency and yield of your photovoltaic system, you need to use a continuous operating data acquisition and intelligent data management. Irrespective of which transmission medium you use, Phoenix Contact has the right network components for you to set up a failsafe communication solution. The basis for this includes the high-performance Gigabit switches, modems, and media converters.
