UAE-based solar photovoltaic integrator, Enviromena Power Systems and Spanish EPC contractor TSK Group have been awarded a contract to build 103MW solar photovoltaic power plant in Jordan.
The $128m solar plant, located in Al Quweira, will be funded by Jordan’s Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources through a grant from Abu Dhabi Fund for Development.
Sami Khoreibi, Enviromena ‘s CEO said: “This is the largest project Enviromena has been awarded to date and is indicative of the growth of our company and the regional market.
“The Al Quweira solar plant will be crucial to Jordan’s energy diversification programme and significantly reduce the Kingdom’s reliance on expensive hydrocarbons, helping it to reach its target of adding 600MW of solar and wind power by 2016.”
