AMMAN — The National Centre for Energy Research is currently preparing tenders to implement renewable energy projects at 11 public and private institutions to provide 4 million kilowatt hours, which annually cost JD800,000, Walid Shaheen, president of the centre, said Saturday.
The scheme is implemented in cooperation with the Energy Ministry and partially financed by the EU, which provided a JD700,000 grant, with the benefiting institutions covering the rest of the cost, the Jordan News Agency, Petra, reported. The projects entail replacing old lighting units with more efficient ones and installing solar cell systems.
