Power & Desalination GCC 2010: Meeting the demand and feedstock challenge

04 March 2010

An update of our BEST SELLING report – providing unmatched insight into the Power & Desalination market…

This report by MEED Insight looks at the key opportunities and prospects for this sector in a challenging and competitive environment.

The GCC Power generation and desalination sector is facing a record capacity building programme over the coming decade. MEED forecasts that more than $135bn will be required by 2019 if rising demand is to be met and old infrastructure is to be replaced.

In view of the growing role of private developers, the biggest challenge for utilities may well be not building the capacity but securing the feedstock to fuel it. For with new gas allocations at a premium is much of the region, the GCC is increasingly turning to alternative energy the report states. The region’s first coal-fired power plant could be commissioned in Oman in 2015 and will be followed two years later by its first nuclear power station in the UAE.
