Could oil plans transform Kuwait's Energy Future?
Oil products will still account for a quarter of fuel use for power generation, and demand for oil in the transport sector grows rapidly. This chapter highlights actionable plans, which, if implemented, could transform Kuwait’s energy future. Like all producer economies, Kuwait faces an uncertain future with respect to its potential oil revenues.
Will oil demand increase in the transport sector in Kuwait?
Oil demand in the transport sector in Kuwait is projected to increase by 3% per year from to . According to the International Energy Agency, the growth rate in global transport oil demand will be dramatically lower, 0.6% per year in the period to .
Who was the project coordinator for the Kuwait Energy Outlook?
Mohamed Nassar was the project coordinator from the UNDP. Special thanks go to Khaled Mahdi, Secretary-General of the General Secretariat of the Supreme Council for Planning and Development, for his commissioning and sponsorship of this work. The editorial committee of the Kuwait Energy Outlook provided valuable insights and feedback.
How will climate and environmental concerns affect Kuwait's oil supply?
Moreover, given that climate and environmental concerns are likely to put pressure on global oil demand growth, Kuwait will face stiffer competition in key markets, particularly if unconventional oil supplies capture a growing share of global oil supply.
How much money does the Kuwait Investment Authority manage?
The Kuwait Investment Authority manages the fund, estimated to be close to US$530 billion (approximately US$380 billion in the Future Generations Fund, and US$148 billion in the General Reserve Fund which aims to support the budget).
When did the energy conservation code change in Kuwait?
Nearly three decades later, a revised version of the code was developed with more stringent requirements for energy eficiency measures in new buildings. This energy conservation code was again updated in with even more rigorous standards for the minimum requirements for energy-eficient design of new buildings in Kuwait.
