'Israel'-Iran trading blows costing Jordan one million dinars per day from gas shortage: sources
Government sources spoke to Roya about the massive toll on Jordan's electricity sector amid the recent military escalation between Iran and 'Israel'. The suspension of natural gas flows resulted in estimated daily losses of JD 1 million incurred by the National Electric Power Company (NEPCO). Despite the financial strain, NEPCO confirmed that Jordan is not experiencing any power outages. The company emphasized that its emergency measures announced earlier today are aimed at maintaining uninterrupted electricity supply across the country. NEPCO's emergency plan In a statement issued Monday, NEPCO announced it had activated its emergency plan in response to a significant drop in natural gas supplies, an outcome of the ongoing regional tensions. One of the plan's immediate steps included the temporary suspension of gas supplies to factories connected to the country's main gas network. The company described the suspension as a precautionary measure aligned with the national gas distribution priorities outlined in the emergency strategy. NEPCO stressed that the suspension is temporary and will be reassessed once regional conditions stabilize and gas flows resume. One million dinars per day: The cost of halted gas supplies Jordan's power plants rely heavily on natural gas as their primary energy source. Government sources stated that the disruption in supply has forced power plants to switch to more expensive alternatives, such as diesel or heavy fuel oil, in order to maintain consistent electricity production and meet domestic demand. This switch has led to a sharp increase in operating costs, with NEPCO incurring around JD1 million in additional expenses every day, placing further pressure on the national budget amid already challenging economic conditions.
