Is battery energy storage possible in Jordan?
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.
Will Jordan increase energy storage investment in 2021?
With the establishment of the legal and regulatory frameworks for energy storage expected by the end of 2021, Jordan is prepared to undertake a step-increase in energy storage investment.
Why should Jordan invest in energy storage?
As a result of this action, Jordan will be better prepared to make investment decisions about the types, sizes, and locations of various energy storage projects, as well as being able to build the national expertise and institutional support to become a regional leader in energy storage as part of the low-carbon energy transition.
How can Jordan achieve energy savings by 2020?
Jordan has set a national target to achieve cumulative electricity savings of 20% by 2020 through the implementation of energy eficiency measures.43 Major sectors include residential, tertiary, industrial, water pumping, street lighting, and transport.
Is concentrating solar power a viable option for Jordan's industrial sector?
However, currently 66% of energy costs for industry are related to the production of heat, for which RE can be a viable power supply option. Concentrated solar power (CSP) is one technology that has continued to drop in price55 as R&D has globally improved and could be a viable option for Jordan’s industrial sector.
Can Jordan become a regional leader in energy storage?
A set of recommendations for regional collaboration to stimulate Jordan’s potential to become a regional leader in energy storage as part of the low-carbon energy transition. The Action Plan implemented will be periodically monitored and evaluated.
