Amman, August 2 (Petra) – Samra Power Generation Company (SEPCO) and
SITE Technology General Contracting on Sunday signed an Engineering,
Procurement and Construction (EPC) contract for a 25-megawatt wind
power project in Ma’an Governorate, funded by the United Arab
Emirates.
The contract was signed under the cooperation agreement concluded in
February between the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources and Abu
Dhabi Future Energy Company (Masdar).
The project includes the supply and installation of five wind
turbines with a combined generating capacity of 25 megawatts at Batn
Al Ghul in Ma’an Governorate.
The UAE government, represented by Masdar, will fully finance the
project, while SEPCO will operate and maintain the facility after
construction is completed and officially handed over.
The project is intended to strengthen Jordan-UAE cooperation and
support the Kingdom’s expansion of renewable energy projects,
contributing to energy security and the transition toward clean and
sustainable energy sources. It also supports national efforts to meet
growing electricity demand through strategic projects aligned with
sustainable development objectives.
The project marks another milestone in the Jordanian-Emirati
partnership and reflects the two countries’ commitment to advancing
strategic initiatives that promote sustainable development.
