3.2.8 3 MW PV plant (for municipal buildings and street lighting)
It is well known that Jordan has a great solar potential. Municipality wants to take advantage
of this benefit and install a big PV plant of 3MW to cover the electricity consumption in the
street lighting and municipal buildings. By doing so, its dependency on the grid will be reduced
through a renewable source of energy, thus achieving CO 2 reductions as well.
This action constitutes a priority for the Municipality and is described in detail in the “3 MW
PV Station installation” project fiche. Key data on the investment are also presented in the
table below.

3.2.9 Establishment of Energy Saving Department
The creation of an Energy Saving Department is proposed, to be staffed with 2 or 3 people
according to the municipality’s needs. These employees should be technically qualified on
energy related issues, so as to promote appropriate activities related to energy savings and
support citizens. Citizens will turn to this department in order to be informed for new practices
and to receive techno-economic advices regarding their energy related investments. In
addition to the above, this department can support the activities of the energy manager and
undertake the responsibility for monitoring the SECAP actions’ progress, in close collaboration
with the employees directly involved with their implementation. The implementation of this
action is not considered to derive direct energy savings and CO 2 reduction benefits, but it is
seen as a supplementary one to the rest of the actions in the sector.
