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
Electricity:
SEPCO, Samra Electric Power Company (100% state-owned), is the main generator with a total capacity of 1.5 GW and a production of 6.2 TWh in 2023 (29% of conventional power generation). The company operates the Samra gas-fired power plant (1.24 GW) and a renewable capacity of 255 MW (175 MW of solar and 80 MW of wind).
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
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).
