Abstract :

Energy and energy security represent the strategic goal of the various countries of the world because of the importance of energy in fulfilling the needs of life. Energy consumption forms are considered active research topics these days with the aim of rationalizing energy consumption as much as possible. Energy sources are also a problem as they are not available in an equal manner to meet the need in the countries of the world. From here a deep looking after the energy sources and the alternatives become of great importance. In this study, investigation about energy sources and alternatives in Jordan, with the aim of taking a sufficient idea of what is available in Jordan from the sources and alternatives. Jordan is depending on the imported oil from the neighborhood countries by 95% of the total needs of the energy generation. The energy needs in Jordan increased by 5% annually on average were some times more than 5% as the energy needs increase in 2019 by 8.5% compared to 2018. This work highlight an assessment of the energy sources in Jordan with the aim of exploring the ways to enhance the energy situation in Jordan by adopting renewable energy with the energy systems in Jordan. The work also proposes some solutions to the energy problem from switching to energy-saving buildings and benefiting from the energy lost sources Finally, it emphasizes the importance of confronting climate change to preserve the environment.
