Transportation and storage represent relatively small energy demand. Though storage of LNG is more energy demanding than storage of gaseous NG, it can be offset by the lower energy demand for long distance transportation of LNG as could be seen Fig. 8. The boil-off makes LNG generally unsuitable for long-term (more than a few weeks) energy storage.

Keeping pace with rising demand for electricity will be critical to Kuwait's economic development, and reforms, such as opening up the power generation sector to independent power producers and independent water and power producers, are key to increasing the currently low share of private company involvement in the sector.
A noticeable concern about the energy demand in Kuwait is the consumption behavior, specifically, the electric energy consumption. The average electricity consumption for the past ten years was 16.1 MWh per capita.
Kuwait's energy system structure is relatively simple. The main demand sectors include power (electricity generation and potable water production), primarily an energy conversion sector, industry (chemicals, petrochemicals, and minerals and metals industries), transportation, and agriculture sectors.
Oil demand in the transport sector in Kuwait is projected to increase by 3% per year from 2015 to 2035. According to the International Energy Agency, the growth rate in global transport oil demand will be dramatically lower, 0.6% per year in the period to 2040.
This could be facilitated through more coordination and collaboration between energy players within Kuwait and improving the institutional capacity for data collection. The lack of collaboration and expertise contribute to long delays in receiving feedback and data from energy entities. The situation, however, is expected to improve.
The Ministry of Electricity and Water estimates that reserve margins could drop to 8% by 2020. Kuwait plans to increase base-load electricity generating capacity to 32 GW by 2035 (see Chapter 2). Until very recently, the Ministry of Electricity and Water was solely responsible for the development of the electricity sector.
