Kuwait, Opec’s fifth-largest oil producer but long a laggard in the energy transition, is taking steps to catch up with its neighbouring Gulf states and ease reliance on falling oil revenues.
Electricity is also heavily subsidised, which has limited the development of Kuwait’s renewables market. Kuwait holds about 7 percent of global oil reserves and has one of the lowest crude oil production costs of around $10 per barrel.
Kuwait holds about 7 percent of global oil reserves and has one of the lowest crude oil production costs of around $10 per barrel. But despite the windfall from oil, the country suffers from power outages amid growing electricity demand and lack of infrastructure maintenance, Alajmi said.
The main commercial port in Kuwait is Shuwaikh port, which currently faces many problems. These problems include traffic congestion on the internal roads and roads surrounding the port causing delays in the arrival of trucks loaded with goods as well as delays in the return of empty containers to the port.
Solar cells consist of a number of many panels (the more are used the better they are) that absorb the energy falling on them. Solar cells are environment friendly, as they do not pollute the environment. Kuwait enjoys a high degree of solar energy due to its geographical location. The sun's brightness reaches 71% on average throughout the year.
The strategic location of Kuwait has significantly helped the country to rely heavily on maritime trade for its economy. The main commercial port in Kuwait is Shuwaikh port, which currently faces many problems.
