Description

Description

Alternative Energy Projects Company (AEPCo), in partnership with Electro-Mechanical & Communication Engineers (EMC), has been awarded the contract to develop Jordan's first floating photovoltaic (FPV) power plant for the Arab Potash Company (APC). The 6 MW facility will be installed on APC's industrial water reservoirs in Ghour Al-Safi, Dead Sea basin. The project aims to supply clean electricity, reduce CO2 emissions by approximately 9,000 tonnes annually, cut water evaporation by about 20,000 cubic meters per year, and reduce algae growth in the reservoirs. It leverages existing water bodies for solar deployment, preserving land resources and supporting Jordan's decarbonization objectives.
