Amman – The Ministry of Investment (MoIN), through its Public-Private Partnership Unit (PPPU), announces that it will host a virtual information session on the Al-Mujib 450 MW Pumped Hydro Energy Storage Project, a strategic energy infrastructure initiative to be implemented under a Public-Private Partnership (PPP) model.
The session will provide an overview of the Project, which involves the development, financing, design, construction, ownership, operation and maintenance of a 450 MW pumped hydro energy storage facility adjacent to the existing Al-Mujib Dam, under a Build-Own-Operate-Transfer (BOOT) arrangement.
It will also highlight the Project's key technical features, including its seven-hour energy storage capacity at full load, its role in storing surplus electricity and releasing it during peak demand periods, and its contribution to enhancing grid flexibility, facilitating the integration of renewable energy sources, strengthening energy security, and supporting the Kingdom's energy transition.
Furthermore, the session will outline the proposed PPP structure, the procurement process and key qualification requirements, as well as the Project's investment framework and upcoming procurement milestones under the current Request for Qualification (RFQ) process.
The Ministry invites prospective investors, energy sector stakeholders, developers, financial institutions, and industry professionals to participate in the virtual information session, scheduled to take place on Wednesday, 11 November 2026, at 2:00 PM (Jordan time).
The Al-Mujib Pumped Hydro Energy Storage Project represents a significant step towards strengthening Jordan's electricity storage capacity, supporting the integration of renewable energy, and encouraging private sector investment in strategic energy infrastructure.
