Due to heavy use of air conditioning, reliance on desalination for water, and highly subsidized electricity prices, Kuwait's per capita electricity consumption is amongst the highest in the world.

In Kuwait, nearly 300-350 MW power is added every year only to satisfy the growing demand of the
A/C systems

Kuwait
• Seven months of summer
• Temperatures over 50 C.
• “Air-conditioning of buildings is the single largest consumer of electricity and accounts for nearly 75% of nation’s peak power demand and over 50% of annual energy consumption. “

• MEW is spending nearly 80 million Kuwaiti Dinars at 400 KD/kW every year to add additional power generation and distribution.
• The amount spent annually on fuel to generate electricity for the operation of the A/C systems is well over 90 million KD (MEW, 2002).

September 14, 2009
GE Energy announced that the Kuwait Ministry of Electricity and Water signed a $2.65 billion
USD contract for a new power plant
Kuwait’s robust business and residential growth has strained the country’s power generation capability, resulting in power outages during
the hot summer months.

From the Energy Information Administration:
Kuwait seeks to significantly increase its use of natural gas in electricity generation, water desalination, and petrochemicals to free up as much as 100,000 barrels per day of oil for export.

Kuwait Consumption & Imports
In 2006, an annual basis - natural gas consumption matches production.
Kuwait’s electricity demand, has outpaced natural gas production during the summer months.
Result is the shutdown of refinery and petrochemical operations to meet the increased demand in electricity.

By 2014 regional energy demand is forecasted to have a 25.1% growth over
the period since 2009.
Kuwait's thermal power generation is forecast to rise 70.2% between 2009 and 2019 by Mike Kinghttp://www.pr-inside.com/kuwait-s-thermal-power-generation-is-r1724985.htm

Where there is a temperature difference between objects in proximity, heat transfer between them can never be stopped; it can
only be slowed down.

History• In 1995, the Kuwait Environment Public Authority (EPA) was created.
• With the help of the ESCWA (the Economic Commission for Western Asia (ECWA) in 2005 set forth an environmental strategy with three types of objectives:
the reduction of the rate of pollution;
introduction of the environmental dimension in policies, plans and national programs;
the protection of the national resources and the biodiversity in the context of sustainable development. (LEED)
“The adoption of such strategies can hardly be considered as a luxury in all Gulf countries; in which environmental problems are somewhat similar”.

Cool Roof Coating Demonstrated Savings
• Evaporative cooling system was undersized
• Store was well over 85°F on some afternoons
• Instead of adding cooling capacity - installed a cool coating

Initial solar reflectivity of 31%, after coating 74%
Initial max temperature 170°F, after coating 120°F
Used 10% less cooling energy
Always 85°F or less in store
Optimal comfort (below 79 F and 60% relative humidity) for 10 more shopping hours a week

White coatings have good solar reflectance, but…..
Chalks, talc and clay can be added to make the coating white and increase solid content.
They have a higher rate of erosion over advanced roof coatings using titanium and ceramics.
Ceramics dramatically reduce erosion.
Premium resins are superior for adhesion, flexibility and durability.
