Kuwait considers nuclear and solar energy
Kuwait: Monday, February 04 - 2008 at 15:11
Kuwait is looking at differing energy sources to supply its power plants over the coming years. Long term, it expects to use a mix of fuels. Saad al-Shuwaib, CEO of Kuwait Petroleum Corporation, ruled out wind and coal, but not solar and nuclear to provide it additional energy needs. 'All the GCC countries are thinking about [nuclear] and I'm sure when it is adopted Kuwait will be one,' he told delegates at the MEED Kuwait conference today.
