Highlights
- The country's objectives for 2030 are to reduce natural gas imports in the power mix to 53% and achieve 14% of renewables in the energy mix.
- IPPs represent around ¾ of power production.
- NPC is in charge of oil exploration and production. The country's sole refinery is operated by JPRC.
- The country has large oil shale and solar resources. Gas supplies 77% of the power mix.
- In 2020, gasoline and diesel prices were back to 2017 levels. Kerosene and LPG prices remained unchanged.
- The country's energy consumption has fallen by 10% since 2017. Oil supplies more than 60% of total consumption.
- Electricity demand should grow by an average of 6.5%/year until 2030.

Abstract
Institutions & Energy Policy
The Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources (MEMR) coordinates the energy sector.
EMRC, the Energy and Minerals Regulatory Commission was created in 2014 by merging several regulatory bodies (Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Natural Resources Authority and Electricity Regulatory Commission).
Energy Supply
Resources:
Jordan is relatively poor in conventional energy resources (gas reserves estimated at 6 bcm and 1.5 mbl for oil).
It has the fifth largest oil shale resources, behind the USA, China, Russia, and Israel (100 mbl according to the WEC survey of energy resources), including 22 mbl of economically exploitable reserves in the Kérak and Lajjun regions.
Energy Prices
Electricity:
Electricity prices have been rationalised. The average price of electricity for households is US$12.1c/kWh and for industry US$12.5c/kWh (2021).
Graph: ELECTRICITY PRICES FOR INDUSTRY AND HOUSEHOLDS (US$c/kWh)
Energy Consumption
Consumption per capita is 0.7 toe/cap, including 1 850 kWh of electricity (2020).
The country's overall consumption (around 8 Mtoe in 2020) has decreased by 3.5% since 2017.
Oil is the country's main energy source, with 52% of total consumption, followed by natural gas with 38%.

Issues & Prospects
Electricity:
According to the Ministry, electricity demand should grow by an average of 6.5%/year until 2030, to 52 TWh. The country's overall capacity should reach 8 GW in 2030 and 14 GW in 2040 (intermediate scenario).

In the Jordan energy market report you will find the following tables:
- Economic Indicators: Annual historical data including population, GDP growth, imports and exports, inflation rate, energy security and efficiency indicators, CO2 emissions.
- Supply Indicators: Historical data including oil and gas reserves, electric and refining capacity, energy production, power production and external trade. All are detailed by energy source.
- Demand Indicators: Historical data including consumption per inhabitant, consumption trends, total consumption by energy source, final consumption by energy source and sector, and electricity consumption by sector.
- Energy Balances: Single table displaying the overall energy industry balance per annum, also graphically displayed by energy sub-segment.
- Infrastructure Projects: Covers power plant projects by energy, technology, status and operator.
The Jordan energy market data since 1990 and up to 2020 is included in the Excel file accompanying the Jordan country report.
It showcases the historical evolution, allowing users to easily work with the data.
Key Data included in the excelsheet:
- Economic indicators: Annual historical economic indicators, energy security, energy efficiency and CO2 emissions.
- Supply indicators: Annual historical reserves, capacity, production and external trade (imports(+) exports(-) balance).
- Demand indicators: Annual historical consumption per capita, consumption trends, total consumption, final consumption (per energy and per sector) and electricity consumption total and per sector.
- Energy Balance: total and per energy.
- Jordan Energy Prices: In addition to the analysis provided on the report we also provided a data set which includes historical details on the Jordan energy prices for the follow items: price of premium gasoline (taxes incl.), price of diesel (taxes incl.), price of electricity in industry (taxes incl.), price of electricity for households (taxes incl.), price of natural gas in industry (taxes incl.), prices of natural gas for households (taxes incl.), spot price of Brent and CO2 emissions (from fuel combustion).
