Al Rajef was developed by Green Watts, a subsidiary of Dubai-based Alcazar Energy, under the first round of Jordan's renewable energy feed-in-tariff programme.
Green Watts signed a 20-year power purchase agreement with national utility NEPCO in 2015, but the project has been held up because of lack of grid capacity.
