Jordan is one of the leading countries in the region in renewable energy (RE) adoption and clean energy growth. Solar or wind energy powers approximately 29. Jordan has medium- and long-term potential as an energy producer of non-conventional and RE. The following are potential opportunities that are either in process.
More than 20 percent of the electricity grid in Jordan is powered by solar or wind energy, with a target of 31% by 2030. Exceeding this percentage will be challenging for Jordan unless storage solutions are implemented.
In response to this, Fichtner in collaboration with the Jordanian Ministry of Energy and the transmission system operator, NEPCO, has analyzed the potential for battery energy storage and, in the role of Transaction Advisor, is providing support for implementing a pilot project.
The first round (2012–2015) was focused on the southern region of Ma'an, with a total capacity of 200 MW solar projects and 117 wind farms. The Jordanian government then used the competitive bidding process for the second and third rounds.
