in the Middle East has experienced
a significant increase of both peak
load and annual electricity
demand within the last decade due
to a strong growth of economy and
population.
The peak load of Jordan’s
electrical system has more than
doubled from year 2000 to 2013 ,
which is equivalent to an average
growth rate of 8% per year.

Around 2000 MW renewable energy will be added
to the Jordan grid by 2020. Operating reserves
need to be even more high to manage the grid
disturbances caused by intermittent generation.
IPP3 & IPP4 power plants will be required to
cover the widening gap between the demand and
supply and to provide reasonable operational
reserves.
More-over the required fuel to power IPP 3 & 4
will be less in comparison to the other power
plants in Jordan
IPP3 & 4 are a form of highly flexible and
efficient power plants. These power plants will
provide provision of flexibility in Jordan to
manage the grid disturbances.
Additional capacity should be in the form of
flexible, efficient, modular plants so as to balance
RE intermittency and to provide operating
reserves.

Around 2000 MW renewable energy will be added
to the Jordan grid by 2020. Operating reserves
need to be even more high to manage the grid
disturbances caused by intermittent generation.
IPP3 & IPP4 power plants will be required to
cover the widening gap between the demand and
supply and to provide reasonable operational
reserves.
More-over the required fuel to power IPP 3 & 4
will be less in comparison to the other power
plants in Jordan
IPP3 & 4 are a form of highly flexible and
efficient power plants. These power plants will
provide provision of flexibility in Jordan to
manage the grid disturbances.
Additional capacity should be in the form of
flexible, efficient, modular plants so as to balance
RE intermittency and to provide operating
reserves.
Thank you!

Jordan, like many other countries
in the Middle East has experienced
a significant increase of both peak
load and annual electricity
demand within the last decade due
to a strong growth of economy and
population.
The peak load of Jordan’s
electrical system has more than
doubled from year 2000 to 2013 ,
which is equivalent to an average
growth rate of 8% per year.
The electricity generated per year
increased within the same time
frame.

Jordan, like many other countries
in the Middle East has experienced
a significant increase of both peak
load and annual electricity
demand within the last decade due
to a strong growth of economy and
population.
The peak load of Jordan’s
electrical system has more than
doubled from year 2000 to 2013 ,
which is equivalent to an average
growth rate of 8% per year.
The electricity generated per year
increased within the same time
frame.

Around 2000 MW renewable energy will be added
to the Jordan grid by 2020. Operating reserves
need to be even more high to manage the grid
disturbances caused by intermittent generation.
IPP3 & IPP4 power plants will be required to
cover the widening gap between the demand and
supply and to provide reasonable operational
reserves.
More-over the required fuel to power IPP 3 & 4
will be less in comparison to the other power
plants in Jordan
IPP3 & 4 are a form of highly flexible and
efficient power plants. These power plants will
provide provision of flexibility in Jordan to
manage the grid disturbances.
Additional capacity should be in the form of
flexible, efficient, modular plants so as to balance
RE intermittency and to provide operating
reserves.

Jordan, like many other countries
in the Middle East has experienced
a significant increase of both peak
load and annual electricity
demand within the last decade due
to a strong growth of economy and
population.
The peak load of Jordan’s
electrical system has more than
doubled from year 2000 to 2013 ,
which is equivalent to an average
growth rate of 8% per year.
The electricity generated per year
increased within the same time
frame.

Jordan, like many other countries
in the Middle East has experienced
a significant increase of both peak
load and annual electricity
demand within the last decade due
to a strong growth of economy and
population.
The peak load of Jordan’s
electrical system has more than
doubled from year 2000 to 2013 ,
which is equivalent to an average
growth rate of 8% per year.
The electricity generated per year
increased within the same time

Around 2000 MW renewable energy will be added
to the Jordan grid by 2020. Operating reserves
need to be even more high to manage the grid
disturbances caused by intermittent generation.
IPP3 & IPP4 power plants will be required to
cover the widening gap between the demand and
supply and to provide reasonable operational
reserves.
More-over the required fuel to power IPP 3 & 4
will be less in comparison to the other power
plants in Jordan
IPP3 & 4 are a form of highly flexible and
efficient power plants. These power plants will
provide provision of flexibility in Jordan to
manage the grid disturbances.
Additional capacity should be in the form of
flexible, efficient, modular plants so as to balance
RE intermittency and to provide operating
reserves.
Thank you!

Jordan, like many other countries
in the Middle East has experienced
a significant increase of both peak
load and annual electricity
demand within the last decade due
to a strong growth of economy and
population.
The peak load of Jordan’s
electrical system has more than
doubled from year 2000 to 2013 ,
which is equivalent to an average
growth rate of 8% per year.
The electricity generated per year
increased within the same time
frame.

Around 2000 MW renewable energy will be added
to the Jordan grid by 2020. Operating reserves
need to be even more high to manage the grid
disturbances caused by intermittent generation.
IPP3 & IPP4 power plants will be required to
cover the widening gap between the demand and
supply and to provide reasonable operational
reserves.
More-over the required fuel to power IPP 3 & 4
will be less in comparison to the other power
plants in Jordan
IPP3 & 4 are a form of highly flexible and
efficient power plants. These power plants will
provide provision of flexibility in Jordan to
manage the grid disturbances.
Additional capacity should be in the form of
flexible, efficient, modular plants so as to balance
RE intermittency and to provide operating
reserves.

Jordan, like many other countries
in the Middle East has experienced
a significant increase of both peak
load and annual electricity
demand within the last decade due
to a strong growth of economy and
population.
The peak load of Jordan’s
electrical system has more than
doubled from year 2000 to 2013 ,
which is equivalent to an average
growth rate of 8% per year.
The electricity generated per year
increased within the same time

Jordan, like many other countries
in the Middle East has experienced
a significant increase of both peak
load and annual electricity
demand within the last decade due
to a strong growth of economy and
population.
The peak load of Jordan’s
electrical system has more than
doubled from year 2000 to 2013 ,
which is equivalent to an average
growth rate of 8% per year.
The electricity generated per year
increased within the same time
frame.

Around 2000 MW renewable energy will be added
to the Jordan grid by 2020. Operating reserves
need to be even more high to manage the grid
disturbances caused by intermittent generation.
IPP3 & IPP4 power plants will be required to
cover the widening gap between the demand and
supply and to provide reasonable operational
reserves.
More-over the required fuel to power IPP 3 & 4
will be less in comparison to the other power
plants in Jordan
IPP3 & 4 are a form of highly flexible and
efficient power plants. These power plants will
provide provision of flexibility in Jordan to
manage the grid disturbances.
Additional capacity should be in the form of
flexible, efficient, modular plants so as to balance
RE intermittency and to provide operating
reserves.

Around 2000 MW renewable energy will be added
to the Jordan grid by 2020. Operating reserves
need to be even more high to manage the grid
disturbances caused by intermittent generation.
IPP3 & IPP4 power plants will be required to
cover the widening gap between the demand and
supply and to provide reasonable operational
reserves.
More-over the required fuel to power IPP 3 & 4
will be less in comparison to the other power
plants in Jordan
IPP3 & 4 are a form of highly flexible and
efficient power plants. These power plants will
provide provision of flexibility in Jordan to
manage the grid disturbances.
Additional capacity should be in the form of
flexible, efficient, modular plants so as to balance
RE intermittency and to provide operating
reserves.
Thank you!

Jordan, like many other countries
in the Middle East has experienced
a significant increase of both peak
load and annual electricity
demand within the last decade due
to a strong growth of economy and
population.
The peak load of Jordan’s
electrical system has more than
doubled from year 2000 to 2013 ,
which is equivalent to an average
growth rate of 8% per year.
The electricity generated per year
increased within the same time
frame.

Around 2000 MW renewable energy will be added
to the Jordan grid by 2020. Operating reserves
need to be even more high to manage the grid
disturbances caused by intermittent generation.
IPP3 & IPP4 power plants will be required to
cover the widening gap between the demand and
supply and to provide reasonable operational
reserves.
More-over the required fuel to power IPP 3 & 4
will be less in comparison to the other power
plants in Jordan
IPP3 & 4 are a form of highly flexible and
efficient power plants. These power plants will
provide provision of flexibility in Jordan to
manage the grid disturbances.
Additional capacity should be in the form of
flexible, efficient, modular plants so as to balance
RE intermittency and to provide operating
reserves.
Thank you!
