Initiatives to reduce indirectenergy consumption include:- Running a solar powered water heating system at ZainJordan’s headquarters creating savings of around 11,000JOD a year.- Equipping our headquarters and some shops with asophisticated system of motion detectors in meetingrooms, which reduce lighting and air conditioning whennot in use.
