Study Climate Change, Energy and Environment SUSTAINABLE TRANSFORMATION OF JORDAN’S ENERGY SYSTEM Development of a Phase Model Sibel Raquel Ersoy, Julia Terrapon-Pfaff December 2021 By applying the Middle East and North Africa(MENA) energy transition phase model for the renewables-based energy transition in the MENA countries to Jordan, the study provides a guiding vision to support strategy development and the steering of the energy transition process. Limited domestic fossil energy resources and the resulting dependence on energy imports are strong drivers for the transition to renewable energy (RE) in Jordan. Domestically generated RE can help to reduce the need for imports and increase energy security. Given a stable and clear policy and regulatory framework, attractive incentives, and available competitive financing, Jordan is likely to become a regional energy hub with export potential.
