Implementation to achieve transition has been slow

KUWAIT CITY, Oct 30: A government report shows Kuwait lags far behind in the use of renewable energy, from the target percentage announced at the United Nations Climate Change Conference which has set the target of one percent from 2015 to 15 percent in 2030 saying renewable energy represents 0.3% of the total installed capacity of the power plants in the country at the end of 2020, reports Al-Anba daily. Although the International Renewable Energy Agency praised Kuwait in 2010 as being among the first countries to ratify the establishment of the organization saying it was a message to the world by beginning its transition to the era of using renewable energy, the implementation to achieve this has been slow.
