Safeer for Energy and Golden Chicken: Solar PV Project PPA Advances Renewable Energy in Amman
Safeer for Energy has signed a significant power purchase agreement (PPA) with Golden Chicken to develop a solar photovoltaic (PV) project at the poultry producer’s facilities in Amman. This initiative represents a significant leap toward cost reduction and a firm commitment to sustainability, with the project expected to generate 1.8 gigawatt-hours (GWh) of clean energy annually.
Slashing Costs with Solar Energy in Amman
The solar PV installation at Golden Chicken’s facilities is slated to slash electricity costs by an impressive 60%. By embracing renewable energy, Golden Chicken expects to enhance its operational profitability while shrinking its carbon footprint. The project will replace a substantial portion of the company’s current energy consumption, aligning with its sustainability goals and supporting a broader strategy of meeting its energy needs more efficiently and responsibly.
Key Environmental and Economic Impacts
The environmental benefits of this solar project are substantial, with an expected reduction of approximately 1,200 tons of CO2 emissions per year—equivalent to the impact of planting over 30,000 trees annually. The initiative supports both Golden Chicken’s sustainability ambitions and the global fight against climate change. Safeer for Energy’s CEO, Mr. Ahmed Safadi, highlighted the project as a model for other companies in the region seeking to transition to renewable energy, noting it reflects the growing demand for sustainable solutions in Jordan.
