In the last article, we saw how the energy demand in heavy trucks might lean more towards fully electrifying the industry. However, the demand for energy in heavy industries differs from the transport sector. In the former, the need to provide process heat is crucial to produce the final products required for the energy transition targets. This presents a challenge… Read More »Hydrogen’s Place In The Steel Industry

There has been a growing argument over Hydrogen’s place in the world’s future economies. Some assume it is a silver bullet to everything emissions, and others believe it makes more sense to Electrify everything and avoid investing in Hydrogen altogether.  To go forward we need to be realistic about the place of Hydrogen in the Net-zero economy and which sectors… Read More »Hydrogen’s Place In The Land Transport Sector

I would like to propose a new method to finance and build a photovoltaic utility project in Kuwait. The proposed PV project will have a 14.88 GW capacity and will aim to supply half of the residential and governmental sectors power consumption in Kuwait without affecting the current government budget. The project will be funded through a mix of debt… Read More »Proposal of an Equity Participation Program For PV Projects

In this article, I would like to propose to capitalise on Kuwait’s relatively cheap Levelised Cost of Energy of PV Solar and Wind to produce Green Hydrogen and kickstart a green heavy industries hub in Kuwait to export green Steel, Ammonia, & Cement. Whether we like it or not, demand for low emission products is set to rise in the… Read More »Kuwait’s Hydrogen Opportunities

The proposed facility will start as an LNG port with a Gas liquefaction facility. The facility will be fed with Natural Gas through pipelines from Iraq and the Durra Gas field for starters, then with further expansion and diplomacy, more Natural Gas from Iraq’s Kurdistan and Azerbaijan should be liquefied and sold through the port.

So, you have been hearing in the news terms like “Blue Hydrogen” and countries pledging to use it to replace fossil fuels, but you have no clue about what is going on? I can help. Hydrogen is one of the world’s most abundant and naturally occurring elements that is found mixed with other elements, think H2O (water). And while it… Read More »A Primer On Hydrogen

Back in college, one of my most favourite professors, Derek Kearny, spoke of the Peak Oil Theory, which is a hypothetical point at which the global demand for oil will reach its maximum level, after which the demand for our black gold will start to decline. He used to wonder whether the reason behind reaching this peak will be because… Read More »Have We Peaked Yet?
