The Progress of Solar PV Sector in Jordan in 2024 | EcoMENA
In 2024, Jordan made significant advancements in its solar PV sector, reflecting its commitment to expanding renewable energy and achieving greater energy independence
The commercial sector faces higher grid fees of 13 JD ($18.3 USD) per kWac/month, reducing the economic viability of installations. In September 2024, Jordan's Council of Ministers lifted the cap on solar PV project sizes, enabling large-scale installations.
Jordan Electric Power Company (JEPCO): 591.44 MW (32,257 projects). Irbid Distribution Company (IDECO): 309.32 MW (28,588 projects). Electricity Distribution Company (EDCO): 181.10 MW (13,300 projects). The global decline in solar PV system prices fueled strong demand for installations during the first half of 2024.
Since Jordan started the solar PV installation in 2012, the demand for solar PV operation and maintenance (O&M) services increased, driven by aging systems requiring inverter replacements (every 8-10 years) and system optimization.
Energy Storage Technologies: Jordan is exploring energy storage solutions, particularly pumped-storage hydropower (PSH), with intention to establish a storage project at Al-Mujib dam before 2030. This may also present opportunities for the U.S. energy sector.
