Thermal Solar Energy Plant in Kuwait
In September, Kuwait’s Institute for Scientific Research signed a $52-million contract with a Spanish company, TSK Group,
to design, establish, and operate the country’s first station for electric energy production using thermal solar energy, with a capacity of 50 megawatts.
The institute’s new contract shows the potential that Kuwait and other nearby countries have in applied research, scientists say, a potential some would like to see expanded with more public and private investment in science.
The Institute’s director, Nagi Al-Mottery, told Al-Fanar Media that Al Shagaya station will be a “cornerstone” of a new regional approach to energy that will prioritize solar energy.
