The source describes the figure as allocations approved for September projects; it is not reported as cash already spent or the final cost of completed systems.","The breakdown shows the different needs the programme is addressing. JOD185,000 was allocated to residential properties inside and outside municipal zoning boundaries.

These categories describe the intended allocation, not each group’s eventual electricity use or the number of jobs that will result.","The committee also approved grid-connected solar systems for 52 homes belonging to low-income families and National Aid Fund beneficiaries. The stated purpose is to help reduce monthly electricity costs; the report gives neither an estimated saving nor a completion date.
