Kuwait Environmental Industry
Frost & Sullivan, Jan 2010, Pages: 46
A favorable investment policy augmenting the influx of pollution control equipment and a spur in Government projects directed at ground water clean up, environmental awareness are expected to boost the Kuwaiti environmental industry. Planned technology advances coupled with international co-operation are likely to drive renewable energies, wastewater sector, desalination capacity and solid waste treatment. This study provides insights into socio-economic,legal, political and technological factors in Kuwait and their likely implications on and opportunities for the environmental sector.
The environmental industry has taken centre stage in recent times and has been accorded top priority by governments in both developed and developing countries. Environment protection is the latest buzzword as nations’ Green consciousness has set off a spate of environment development activities, especially in advanced regions such as the European Union and more recently, the Middle East Region. Such efforts assume greater importance in the face of environment degradation brought about by accelerated economic development. With international agreements such as the Kyoto Protocol coming into force, even Middle Eastern countries such as Kuwait have jumped onto the Green bandwagon. General economic policies greatly affect the environmental industry, and industry-specific policies, wherever effectively enforced, provide added thrust. The economy of the country plays a huge role in strengthening and boosting the industry with its effective trade ties and inflows of foreign direct investment (FDI). These factors are vital for the growth of the environmental industry. Social and infrastructural developments also provide support for the industry.
The Kuwaiti environmental industry is underdeveloped domestically, but participants are hopeful due to the ample government support in the form of conducive import policies and tax incentives, as well as sufficient financial support. The industry comprises a limited number of domestic companies and is heavily dependent on imports of equipment and technology, especially from the United States and the United Kingdom. The economic situation of Kuwait is stable and the economy is maintaining a healthy growth, despite the global downturn. On the strength of strong macro-economic fundamentals, the Government can channel significant investments to infrastructure as well as environmental awareness and projects such as ground water clean ups, oil spillage clean up and so on. With a projected increase in population and demographic trends, environmental initiatives and the demand for pollution abatement equipment are also likely to rise. Recycling services are also expected to get a leg up with the Government favouring them for tackling the growing waste disposal concerns. As the region is heavily dependent on seawater desalination as well as wastewater treatment, desalination and reverse osmosis will experience considerable technological advancements. Improvements in environment-friendly and treatment technologies will contribute to the development of a progressive environmental industry.
