Baghdad - Iraq Today:
The Director General of the Jordanian National Electric Power Company Amjad Al-Rawashdeh said that the Jordanian-Iraqi electrical interconnection line will enter service next Saturday.
The Jordan News Agency (Petra) quoted Rawashdeh as saying that the line will be shared between the Jordanian Risha electric stations and the Iraqi Rutba station at a voltage of 132 kilovolts, to feed the loads of the Rutba area near the border with Jordan.
On February 11, 2024, in the capital, Amman, Iraq and Jordan signed a document to provide the Iraqi side with 40 megawatts of electricity in the first phase, as the two parties considered the contract as part of a more comprehensive Arab plan for the Arab common market for energy in the future.
The Iraqi Ministry of Electricity announced the completion of the operation of the Iraqi-Jordanian electric line, stressing that the date of entry of the line into service will be next Saturday, March 30.
She added that the line will be shared between the Jordanian Risha electric stations and the Iraqi Rutba station, and at a voltage of 132 kilovolts to feed the loads of the Rutba area near the border with Jordan.
