Sharjah, (IINA) - The Middle East’s UAE-based award winning and leading integrated environmental and waste management company "Bee’ah", is introducing innovative solar-powered bins across Sharjah that will act as hotspots, WAM reported.
The initiative came in line with the UAE’s Innovation Week, which seeks to promote and encourage the finest ideas on innovation from governmental sectors, private sectors and the public.
A leading provider of bin solutions in the US signed a MoU that commits it to design and build hundreds of Wi-Fi bins across Sharjah as well as the UAE's prominent locations in 2016.
It is noteworthy that this will make Sharjah the first city in the Middle East to have smart bin technology with Wi-Fi hotspot in parallel with leading cities such as London and New York.
Chairperson of Bee’ah Salim Al-Owais said: "The smart Wi-Fi bins being introduced by Bee’ah are a step forward in environmental innovation, optimally merging efficiency and utility. The fact that Sharjah will be the region’s first location to offer them is a testament to our Emirate’s growing status as an environmental capital of the Middle East. This technology is part of an innovative suite of ground-breaking products and services we are in the process of rolling out … to protect the environment and ensure a sustainable future".
