Meanwhile, she revealed that vacancies in the General Administration for Supreme Planning Council and the Central Administration for Statistics will be filled up before March 3, 2016. Sources disclosed this information was derived from the latest statistical report which also revealed that the State bears an average cost of KD 1,310 for the normal thermal lighting per house and a citizen pays only KD 56.
Sources stressed the need to use this type of lighting in order to save energy and reduce heat leakage inside the house, taking into consideration the rising number of residential units. Sources pointed out this will limit the use of air conditioning units that constitute about 70 percent of the total electricity consumption.
Sources added houses in four new residential cities will be distributed soon and the estimated cost for producing electricity that these areas need is estimated at KD20 billion; hence, the importance of rationalizing energy consumption through the use of normal thermal lighting.
