Conducting Energy Audit Analysis for Princess Basma Governmental Hospital

The United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), with support from the UNDP Regional Bureau for Arab States (RBAS) through the Engagement Facility Project, Regional Crisis Response Mechanism for Sub-regional Crisis, is implementing the project “From Crisis Response to System Resilience: Jordan Crisis-Resilient Demand Flexibility Package”. The project responds to the growing risks arising from the ongoing regional geopolitical crisis, which is disrupting energy markets, trade routes, and supply chains, with significant implications for Jordans energy security, economic stability, and the continuity of essential services. Given Jordans heavy reliance on imported energy and limited fiscal space, the project seeks to strengthen national resilience by advancing demand flexibility solutions that enhance the reliability of critical infrastructure, improve power system resilience, and support a more adaptive and sustainable energy system.

Through this initiative, UNDP will support the Government of Jordan, under the leadership of the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources (MEMR), in implementing a Crisis-Resilient Demand Flexibility Package. The package combines immediate electricity savings and peak-demand reduction measures with a structured pathway towards more scalable and bankable demand-side flexibility solutions. It aims to address immediate pressures and strengthening the long-term efficiency, reliability and resilience of Jordan’s electricity system. The project output consists of 3 main outputs as follow:

1.      Output (1): A national demand-flexibility coordination mechanism is operational and linked to critical-service resilience planning.

2.      Output (2): No-cost / low-cost demand-side measures are implemented in priority public and municipal facilities to reduce electricity consumption and peak demand while maintaining safe and reliable service delivery.

3.      Output (3): A bankable, regulator supported ADSM/Demand Response pilot model is established and ready for implementation, with defined participants, operational rules, and monitoring framework in place.
