The Sabiya West gas-fired combined-cycle power plant is the biggest power station in Kuwait. Owned and operated by Kuwait's Ministry of Electricity and Water (MEW), the 2GW gas-fired power station comprises three combined-cycle power blocks.
As an instrumental power supplier for the country's energy sector, Mitsubishi Power provides almost half (43%) of Kuwait's power supply. Our technologies are installed in many major power plants, including the 2.4GW Doha West, 2.4GW Sabiya, and the 2.5GW Az-Zour South 0.5GW Shuaiba South B.
These will extend the lifetime of the power and water station to up to 20 years to ensure efficient, safe and reliable power generation in Kuwait.
This paper has presented a detailed analysis of capacity and availability of electrical power stations in Kuwait. The analysis show that as Kuwait population has increased over the past 34 years by more than 3 times, the demand for power consumption has increased by almost 7 times.
