Energy, from The Report: Oman 2023
As Russia''s invasion of Ukraine and climate change continue to disrupt market dynamics, the transition to cleaner sources of energy has never been in sharper focus.
It has a 54-m rotor diameter and a working velocity between 3 and 10 m/s. With a USD$1.2 million capital cost and USD$750,000 maintenance cost over 20 years, the power generation cost would be USD$0.119/kW. This cost is the lowest possible for generating power in the north of Oman.
The Ministry of Housing, Electricity & Water (MHEW) is responsible for the planning and management of the electricity sector. The Ministry of Energy and Minerals (MEM - formerly Ministry of Oil and Gas) manages the hydrocarbons sector.
Unlike the national energy production, gas accounts for the largest amount of primary energy supply in Oman (18,040 ktoe), followed by crude oil (9,927 ktoe). Oman is a fossil fuel exporting country. In 2011, the country was exporting 39,481 ktoe of crude oil, 2,152 ktoe of oil products and 9,797 ktoe of natural gas.
Buildings absorb 83% of the electricity consumption in Oman. The country has a very high energy consumption per capita due to energy-intensive industrial production. Oman wants to develop gas production to face oil depletion. A new leasing round for onshore and offshore oil blocks was launched in 2021.
In 2022, Oman launched an electricity spot market. This action is part of the country's efforts to diversify its energy mix and promote renewable energy adoption.
