In Jordan, Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources, Saleh Kharabsheh, inked a MOU with the Mass Group Holding energy company, with a goal of conducting feasibility studies for the development of green ammonia and hydrogen projects in Jordan. The MOU targets production of 180,000 tons of green ammonia. It outlines the general framework of cooperation to facilitate and empower the company to undertake a preliminary feasibility study for a new green hydrogen project. Once the initial studies are completed, and based on the outcomes, the ministry will proceed to establish a framework agreement, leading to the final investment agreement for the project. The Minister underscored that this memorandum aligns with the government’s efforts to enhance Jordan’s role as a regional center for green energy production. Leveraging abundant renewable energy sources and the country’s central location in the Middle East and Africa region, this step is part of the ministry’s priorities and falls within te Economic Modernization Vision (2023-2033).
