According to annual reports by Jordan’s grid operators, the total installed on-grid solar PV capacity reached 2,073.86 MW by the end of 2024. This capacity is divided as follows: Distribution System Operators (DSOs): 1,081.86 MW across 74,145 projects. Transmission System Operator (TSO): 992 MW. The largest DSO-managed installations were by:
In September 2024, Jordan’s Council of Ministers lifted the cap on solar PV project sizes, enabling large-scale installations. A notable example is a 50 MW solar power plant financed by Cairo Amman Bank and currently under construction.
The commercial sector faces higher grid fees of 13 JD ($18.3 USD) per kWac/month, reducing the economic viability of installations. In September 2024, Jordan’s Council of Ministers lifted the cap on solar PV project sizes, enabling large-scale installations.
Since Jordan started the solar PV installation in 2012, the demand for solar PV operation and maintenance (O&M) services increased, driven by aging systems requiring inverter replacements (every 8-10 years) and system optimization.
