Abstract

This paper presents a useful way to maintain the operation of the Jordan Electric Power System in an effective, economic and with minimal losses. The paper discusses available technologies for energy-efficient equipment and energy conservation methods. The total volume of energy imports and the corresponding increase in energy demand have been provided. On the basis of the Jordanian strategy to ensure the security and reliability of electricity supply, as well as to reduce reliance on fuel oil, basic information on the development of the domestic sector and the refining sector and the evolution of production and Electric power consumption in Jordan have been presented. The main content of the document focuses on the main tools of support of conservation and management of the energy. Support tools such as energy and public awareness, energy regulation and energy information programming have been demonstrated and explained.
