Hydro Power Production in Jordan: Possibilities and Challenges

01.Feb.2022

​Jordan has limited energy resources combined with an increasing population over the past 20 years. There are limited resources such as fossil fuels and natural gas. Therefore, Jordan relies on imports of crude oil and natural gas. Jordan has several water reservoirs in the form of a dam that spread all over the country. No of these dams are utilized for hydropower production. In this work, we identified the dams that are potentially could be modified for energy production. We estimated the overall power production with recommendations and present and future challenges.
