Kuwait needs to rethink its energy mix
- Abstract:
- The Stone Age did not end because we ran out of stones; we transitioned to better solutions (Steven Chu and Arun Majumdar, Nature, August 2012). We all know that the oil dominance era will not end because we will run out of oil; it will fade away because the world will have alternative options. Countries with economies that are highly dependent on oil exports and excessive energy intensity (energy consumed per unit of GDP), such as Kuwait, will be significantly impacted if sustainable energy measures and economic diversification actions are not adopted.
