Overview

Jordan is advancing its energy transition through ambitious climate and energy policies, targeting a significant reduction in greenhouse gas emissions by the next decade. The government promotes renewable energy expansion, aiming to increase its share in the power mix while reducing reliance on imported natural gas. Regulatory bodies oversee energy market reforms, supporting diversification through solar, wind, and emerging technologies like small modular reactors. Strategic infrastructure projects, including cross-border electricity interconnections and green hydrogen initiatives, further strengthen energy security and regional cooperation.

Highlights

  • Jordan aims to reduce its GHG emissions by 31% in 2030.
  • IPPs supply most of the power generation (72%), along with State owned utility SEPCO (28%).
  • NPC, the public gas company, aims to achieve a production of 2 bcm/year by 2030.
  • The country has large oil shale and solar resources.
  • Gas accounted for 59% of the power mix in 2023 and renewables for 25%.
  • The final energy consumption has fluctuated around 6 Mtoe since 2016.
  • Oil supplies 62% of this consumption.
  • Electricity prices remained stable in 2024 and diesel prices fell by 9%.
  • Electricity demand should grow by an average of 6.5%/year until 2030.
  • Masdar will develop a 1 GW wind project.
  • The country is showing interest in developing SMRs.

  • Energy & Climate Policy Framework

    The Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources (MEMR) coordinates the energy sector.

    EMRC, the Energy and Minerals Regulatory Commission regulates the energy sector; it was created in 2014 by merging several regulatory bodies (Nuclear Regulatory Commission, Natural Resources Authority and Electricity Regulatory Commission).

  • Energy Companies

    Oil:

    NPC, National Petroleum Company, is in charge of the exploration and production activities according to the concessions granted by NRA and now EMRC (corresponding to a 7 000 km² area), which include a concession for the Risha oilfield with an area of around 1 500 km².

  • Energy Supply & Demand

    Resources:

    Jordan is relatively poor in conventional energy resources (gas reserves estimated at 6 bcm).

    The country is considered to have significant oil shale resources estimated at 5 242 mbl by the US Geological Survey (2006).

    Jordan also has large wind and solar resources (among the highest irradiance level in the world, at around 6.4 kWh/m2/d).

  • Energy Use and Price by Sector

    Energy Prices in Transport:

    In 2024, the price of diesel reached US$0.99/l (-9%) and that of gasoline US$1.61/l (-2%). Prices have increased regularly since 2020 (+28% for gasoline and +45% for diesel)

  • Issues & Prospects

    Gas:

    According to its strategic plan for 2020-30, NPC aims to achieve a daily production of 5.7 mcm/d.
