Story details

Mafraq Municipality said it implemented a solar-energy project worth JD185,000 across six municipal buildings. Petra reported on September 15 that the project was supported by a grant and forms part of the municipality’s measures to reduce energy expenditure.

The municipality forecast that the installations could lower electricity bills by 70% to 80%. That figure is an expected saving, not a measured result reported after a full operating period; the source did not state the systems’ total capacity or annual generation.
