1 ESTABLISHING KUWAIT AS A GLOBAL LEADER FOR SPACE COOLING TECHNOLOGIES IN HOT CLIMATES Efficient Cooling Technologies Workshop Kuwait 2 October 2017 Eng. Ridah Sabouni, CEM, PMP, CMVP Managing Director, Middle East & North Africa Energetics Incorporated Ideas to Impacts

2 Providing clients with solutions that: Increase energy efficiency Diversify energy supply Measure impacts of new energy technologies Benchmark energy and carbon footprints Create consensus around strategic priorities Modernize infrastructure Energetics at a Glance staff members include engineers, scientists, project managers, and communication specialists 30+ Subject Matter Experts: Advanced Manufacturing, Energy Management, Wind, Solar, Bioenergy, Battery Storage, CHP, Fuel-efficient Vehicle Technologies, Green Building Technologies, Smart Grid, Climate Change Adaptation, and Policy/Regulatory Affairs Over 50% with Advanced Degrees (Ph.D., J.D., M.S.) 55 BS/BA Engineering/Science Degrees Certifications including PMP, PE, CEM, LEED, CMVP Integrated delivery of technical, analytical, and communication services for over 35 years

3 ENERGETICS BUSINESS AREAS 3

4 ENERGETICS SERVICE OFFERINGS Planning & Roadmapping Analysis & Modeling GCC Governments Implementation & Deployment Outreach & Communications Private Clients Evaluation & Metrics 4

5 WHY? Why establish Kuwait as a Global Leader for Space Cooling Technologies in Hot Climates? 5

6 WHY? Why establish Kuwait as a Global Leader for Space Cooling Technologies in Hot Climates Global HVAC market: $173 billion by 2022 Space cooling: ~70% of peak power demand and ~50% of electricity consumption in the GCC Residential developments accelerating in Kuwait and the GCC GCC HVAC market grew by 7.4% in 2016 Kuwaiti HVAC market expected to be $462 million market by 2022, with growth rate of 7.1% from 2016 to 2022 Kigali amendment to the Montreal protocol: Phase down of the high GWP refrigerants (HFCs) Great incentives for Kuwait to lead the way!

7 HOW? How can Kuwait establish itself as a Global Leader for Space Cooling Technologies in Hot Climates? 7

8 U.S. DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY INTEGRATED APPROACH TO BUILDING TECHNOLOGIES Tightly integrated strategies! All equally important. Source: Energetics for U.S. DOE R&D Roadmap For Emerging Window And Building Envelope Technologies,

9 DEVELOPING A SPACE COOLING TECHNOLOGIES ECOSYSTEM IN KUWAIT Integrated policy approach is required Space Cooling Ecosystem in Kuwait International Collaboration Should not focus solely on codes + standards 9

10 RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT (R&D) R&D takes time! Coordinated government support is critical A robust and engaged private sector is also key In the U.S. 71% of R&D performed by business sector Must incentivize space cooling companies to perform R&D in Kuwait R&D Activity Share of U.S. R&D Performance R&D Performers R&D Funders Basic Research 18% Academia (51%) U.S. Federal government (47%) Applied Research 20% Business sector (56%) Business sector (51%), Federal government (31%) Development 63% Business sector (88%) Business sector (81%), Federal government (18%) Source: U.S. National Science Foundation: 10

11 R&D SUCCESS STORY: LOW-EMISSIVITY (LOW-E) WINDOWS Low-E coating: Transparent coating that blocks infrared radiation to keep heat outside buildings on hot days and inside on cold days Late 1970s/Early 1980s: U.S. government funded a startup company formed by MIT students Today in USA: >80% market share of residential windows and >50% of commercial windows Estimated net savings of >$8 billion by 2000 Source: Energetics for U.S. DOE BTO R&D Roadmap For Emerging Window And Building Envelope Technologies (2014). 11

12 RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT (R&D) Advantage for Kuwait: A well-established R&D culture Kuwait Institute of Scientific Research (KISR): Since 1967 (50 th Golden Jubilee Anniversary coming up in November!) Kuwait Foundation for the Advancement of Science (KFAS): Since 1976 Focus on space cooling R&D especially for hot/harsh climates Establish state-of-art R&D and testing facilities with dual-use for testing and verification activities Human capital capacity building 12

13 R&D CHALLENGES Lack of corporate HVAC R&D in the region: more needs to be done to attract R&D Local Companies Zamil (Saudi Arabia), SKM (UAE), RIC (Kuwait), Petra (Jordan), GAMI (UAE), AWAL Gulf (Bahrain), Alessa (KSA) Int l Market Companies Gree, Trane, Daikin, Samsung, Carrier, National, Emerson, York, LG, and Fujitsu Local companies: Provide support with expertise and stateof-art equipment Int l companies: Help customize products to harsh climate of this region Effective national coordination is needed Regional cooperation is critical (role for EU-GCC, GCC Secretariat, Eurovent, and others) 13

14 IMPORTANCE OF INTERNATIONAL COLLABORATION Forge partnerships and collaborations with key international stakeholders Leverage technical and policy resources Motivate and accelerate national space cooling activities paving the road for Kuwait to lead internationally Examples EU-GCC Eurovent Ashrae GCC Secretariat UNEP PRAHA Clean Energy Ministerial 14

15 INTERNATIONAL COLLABORATION Clean Energy Ministerial (CEM) Global forum of energy ministries from 24 countries and Europe: 90% of global clean energy investments and 75% of global GHG emissions CEM Secretariat now within Int l Energy Agency HQ in Paris (initially hosted within U.S. Department of Energy) CEM Roles: Bringing together the world s key clean energy market leaders Improving policy and expanding deployment of clean energy technologies Distributing and fostering clean energy leadership around the world Filling a gap in the international clean energy conversation Engaging key private-sector partners 15

16 CEM SUPER-EFFICIENT EQUIPMENT AND APPLIANCE DEPLOYMENT (SEAD) INITIATIVE CEM SEAD Initiative Create common technical foundations for identifying efficient products in different climates; Develop draft efficiency specifications for ACs and other space cooling appliances; Grow the market for highly efficient products that maximize climate benefits 16

17 CEM ADVANCED COOLING CHALLENGE Public/private coalition to: Accelerate AC product innovation, Distinguish top-performing products, Enhance knowledge base, and Coordinate on market intelligence to develop/support highly efficient AC systems Seeking commitments from governments. For example: Government X commits to assessing its existing cooling equipment policies/programs in response to new market data Governments X and Y commit to collaborating to develop a market transformation program. 17

18 CODES AND STANDARDS Codes and standards efforts: Establish minimum energy use levels using a transparent public process, Critical to raising the efficiency bar, enhancing industry competitiveness and profitability, and protecting consumer interests. Locks in energy savings and emissions reductions by enforcing minimum efficiency levels and acceptable building design guidelines 18

19 MARKET STIMULATION Other market barriers must be addressed in parallel: Communications and public outreach Government stakeholder engagement Policy Support for industrial/institutional partnerships to stimulate a vibrant technology ecosystem Ministry of Electricity and Water KISR KFAS Kuwait University PAAET Kuwait Society of Engineers 19

20 MARKET STIMULATION Price signal is needed! Source: Wattaqa 20
