Kuwait has implemented rolling blackouts in several residential neighborhoods due to a fuel supply disruption that has also affected desalination plants and power stations. The outages come amid soaring summer temperatures, with forecasts predicting highs of 43 degrees Celsius (109 degrees Fahrenheit) and a perceived temperature of 53 degrees Celsius (127 degrees Fahrenheit) due to poor air quality. The Ministry of Electricity, Water and Renewable Energy has urged residents to conserve energy during peak hours to help stabilize the power grid. The blackouts are part of a broader strategy to manage the energy crisis exacerbated by the high demand for electricity and water during the summer months. The situation highlights the vulnerabilities of Kuwait's energy infrastructure amid extreme weather conditions.
