The Al Shaqaya Renewable Energy Complex, developed by the Kuwait Institute for Scientific Research , is a cornerstone of Kuwait’s strategy to diversify its energy mix.
The integration of the 400 kV transmission line will facilitate the transfer of energy generated at Al Shaqaya to the Al Wafra substation for distribution.
L&T’s bid underscores its growing presence in the Middle East’s renewable energy sector.
