Government plans to boost solar and storage
The government has proposed expanding the use of solar energy in Jordan by amending the regulation governing the connection of renewable energy facilities to the electric grid. The aim is to increase the benefits for citizens and economic sectors from renewable energy, support storage capabilities, and promote efficient consumption. The amendments include allowing an increase in the capacity of renewable energy systems connected to storage systems by up to 100% of the consumption reflected in the last 12 bills, removing sector-specific restrictions on certain mechanisms, and enabling greater benefits for the residential and industrial sectors. The revised system also encourages expansion before June 2024, enhances the feasibility of investing in clean energy, and focuses on maintaining grid stability and reliability. This effort contributes to raising the share of renewable energy in the electricity mix to 40% by 2035.
