Supporting the Jordanian-German Energy Partnership

Client

German Energy Agency (dena)/Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Protection (BMWK)

Year

2025


With the goal of continuing to expand the energy supply in their respective countries in a way that is environmentally compatible, progressive and economical, in 2019, Germany and Jordan agreed to further reinforce their cooperation.

The Jordanian-German Energy Partnership was the central platform for the energy policy dialogue between Germany and Jordan. In Germany, the contracting authority was the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Protection (BMWK) and the political executing agency in Jordan was the Ministry for Energy and Natural Resources (MEMR). The German Energy Agency (dena) had the role of coordinator for the energy partnership’s activities.

Prognos was the specialist partner for questions of energy statistics, digitalisation and modelling.

Achieving more together

In September 2024, in the context of the partnership, energy experts Friedrich Seefeldt and Mohammad Alkasabreh made a trip to Jordan that was coordinated by the dena. In the capital Amman, they worked together with decision makers from ministries, public authorities and the energy industry on new concepts for Jordanian energy statistics.

Goal of the partnership

The exchange had a goal ­– to push forward the energy transition in both countries. This meant:

  • further developing carbon accounting and energy statistics
  • the digitalisation of processes and energy previsions
  • creating more robust foundations for mid- and long-term energy planning

The findings were be discussed in further meetings and continued to be developed in collaboration with German energy statistics stakeholders.
