The Al Husainiyah solar plant, 200km south of Jordanian capital Amman, began commercial operations a week ago with more than 200,000 panels manufactured by 30% joint owner Philadelphia Solar. The solar farm was awarded a 20-year power purchase agreement under Jordan's feed-in tariff program.
The panel maker will own 30% of the power plant with AMEA owning the balance of a facility awarded under the second round of Jordan's feed-in tariff program.
Dubai-based clean energy developer AMEA Power today announced the commissioning of the project in the Ma'an governorate of the kingdom, which features solar modules made in Jordan by Amman-based manufacturer and developer Philadelphia.
