AVEVA CONNECT Explained: The platform set to boost Net-Zero 2050 goals at UAE's biggest Energy Expo

At the upcoming Abu Dhabi International Petroleum Exhibition and Conference (ADIPEC) 2025 in Abu Dhabi, scheduled for 3–6 November, global industrial-software leader AVEVA will showcase its CONNECT platform — an AI-driven, digital-twin powered system designed to support the UAE’s energy sector in achieving the UAE Net Zero 2050 Strategy . The platform provides companies with a unified, real-time view across engineering, operations, and performance, enabling smarter decision-making and greener asset management.

What is AVEVA CONNECT ?
CONNECT is AVEVA’s industrial-intelligence layer that stitches together real-time operational telemetry, engineering models and historical performance into a single contextual view. It bundles digital twins, AI analytics, AR/VR visualisation and cloud scale, enabling teams to pinpoint inefficiencies, predict equipment failures and run scenario simulations, all from one platform. AVEVA says CONNECT shortens time-to-value for digital twin projects and supports life cycle decisions from design through operations.

How CONNECT helps the UAE’s Net-Zero 2050 plan?
The UAE’s Net-Zero 2050 goal demands both strategic policy and granular operational change. CONNECT helps bridge that gap by:

• Measuring emissions in near real-time, so operators can prioritise reductions.
  
• Optimising plant operations to cut fuel use, flaring and energy waste.
  
• Enabling predictive maintenance to extend asset life and avoid inefficient emergency fixes.
  
• Running decarbonisation scenarios with digital twins so leaders can compare cost and emission outcomes before investing.
  

Put simply: CONNECT turns raw industrial data into the actions that reduce carbon, a practical match for the UAE’s timeline.

What is ADIPEC and why it matters in 2025?
The Abu Dhabi International Petroleum Exhibition & Conference (ADIPEC) is one of the world’s largest energy events, bringing together global policymakers, CEOs, engineers, investors, and sustainability leaders. While historically known for oil and gas partnerships, ADIPEC has evolved into a future-energy and climate-tech platform, making 2025 a key year as countries race toward decarbonisation commitments.

This year’s edition is expected to highlight:

• Digitisation of the energy sector
  
• Industrial AI and digital twins
  
• Clean-tech and decarbonisation innovations
  
• UAE’s roadmap to low-carbon industrial growth
  

The key industry event, the Abu Dhabi International Petroleum Exhibition & Conference ( ADIPEC 2025 ), is scheduled to take place in Abu Dhabi, UAE, running for four days from Monday, November 3 to Thursday, November 6, 2025. This major global gathering serves as a critical platform for discussing the future of energy, with a strong focus on transformation, digitalization, and sustainability efforts, such as the UAE's Net Zero 2050 Strategy. Attendees interested in seeing AVEVA’s cutting-edge CONNECT platform, which uses AI and digital twins to drive efficiency and cleaner operations, can find the company’s experts and live demonstrations at Hall 4, Stand 4410.

What will AVEVA showcase at ADIPEC 2025?
Visitors to ADIPEC 2025 will be able to experience the CONNECT Platform live, with interactive demos showing how energy companies can transform their operations through:

• Digital Twin Technology – Real-time virtual replicas of plants and assets for smarter engineering and maintenance
  
• AI-Driven Decision-Making – Predictive analytics to improve efficiency and reduce emissions
  
• Unified Industrial Data – A single platform connecting engineering, operations, and performance to boost sustainability and profitability
  

AVEVA’s aim is to show that digital transformation isn’t a “future” concept anymore, it’s a now-essential tool for cleaner, more efficient energy production.

Why does it matter?
For energy companies and industrial firms in the UAE, deploying CONNECT means better operational control, potential cost savings and cleaner output, which translates into stronger competitiveness. For citizens and the broader economy, this suggests more stable energy supply, fewer emissions, and job growth in digital-twin engineering, AI analytics and clean-tech services. INGrowth in these sectors also supports the UAE’s goal of becoming a knowledge-and-innovation hub.
