Amman, May 5 (Petra) -- The West and North Amman Industrial Investors Association met with the Renewable Energy and Energy Management Companies Association (REES) on Tuesday to explore collaborative frameworks for integrating sustainable energy solutions into the Kingdom’s industrial landscape.
Saeid Rasas, Chairman of the West and North Amman Industrial Investors Association, emphasized the necessity of educating industrial leaders on the strategic advantages of energy storage systems. He noted that these technologies, whether integrated with existing solar photovoltaic (PV) arrays or utilized alongside the traditional electrical grid, are essential for enhancing operational sustainability and significantly reducing production costs.

He stressed that a collaborative approach is vital for the advancement of Jordan's renewable energy infrastructure.
