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
Oil:
The country has a refinery in Zarqa with a capacity of 102 600 bbl/d. Jordan imported 2.1 Mt of crude oil in 2020. This decrease follows a long-term increasing trend of crude oil and oil products between 2010-2015, which was related to a significant rise in the consumption of fuel oil for electricity generation.
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).

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).
