Highlights
- Jordan aims to reach 50% of renewables in its power mix in 2030, so as to achieve 14% of renewables in the energy mix.
- SEPCO represents 30% of total power generation. IPPs account for the remainder of power production.
- NPC, the public company in charge of gas exploration and production, aims to achieve a daily production of 5.7 mcm/d by 2030.
- The country has large oil shale and solar resources.
- Gas accounted for 71% of the power mix in 2021 and renewables for 25%.
- Electricity prices for households have risen by 27% in 2022 and diesel prices by 17%.
- The country's energy consumption has decreased by 2.5%/year since 2017.
- Oil supplies half of the total consumption.
- Electricity demand should grow by an average of 6.5%/year until 2030.
- Jordan will develop 600 MW of solar PV through the Prosperity Green project.
- The country is showing interest in developing SMRs.
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).
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 was rationalised until 2022. The average price of electricity for households increased by 27% in 2022 to US$15.4c/kWh, while it decreased for industry by 23% to US$9.6c/kWh.
Energy Consumption
Consumption per capita is 0.8 toe/cap, including 1 973 kWh of electricity (2021).
The country's overall consumption (around 8.5 Mtoe in 2021) has decreased by 2.5%/year since 2017.
Oil is the country's main energy source, with 49% of total consumption, followed by natural gas with 37%.
