1 The Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan Carbon Capture and Storage Capacity Building Technical Assistance Washington-DC By: Mohammed Dabbas (B.Sc, Post Grad. in Chem. Eng, University of Jordan) (M.Sc. in Env. Tech, UMIST-UK) Director of Energy Efficiency & Energy Conservation Ministry of Energy & Mineral Resources Sep. 2011

2 SCOPE:- Part (1):- Idea Vision. Jordan s Energy Sector Jordan s R.E Sector/Facts National Environment, Economic & Development Study (NEEDS) For Climate Change in Jordan. Part (2):- Jordan s CO2 Emissions:- Main CO2 point Sources. Government CCS Policy Support from CCS Trust Fund Moving Forward

3 The purpose of the CCS study implemented by the World Bank Technical Assistance mission are to:- - Assess the potential for applying CCA (CO2) in Jordan, since Jordan has limited engagement with CCS. - Building indigenous governmental & non-governmental capacity for planning & implementing future CCS activities & projects.

4 2. The Energy Mix in Jordan ( ) 2007 Imported Electricity 7% Renewable 1% N. Gas 26% Oil Products 66% Oil Shale 11% Imported Electricity 2% Domestic Resources 4%, Imported 96% Renewable7% Imported Electricity 1%Oil Shale 14% Renewable 10% Nuclear 6% N. Gas 29% Oil Products 51% N. Gas 29% Oil Products 40% Domestic Resources 25%, Imported 75% Domestic Resources 39%, Imported 61%

5 Renewable Energy now is less than 1%. National Energy Strategy targets 10% by Recent government tax regulation has provided incentives to RE programs; this incentive can help make PV and Wind more affordable. Through Wind Farms, generated electricity has become highly competitive to the major fossil and nuclear power plants in many countries.

6 It is a part of Jordan s Commitment to International Environmental Conventions. Jordan initiated with the support of UNFCCC a National Economic & Environmental Development Study (NEEDS) For Climate Change. NEEDS initiative aims at identifying financing needs to implement Adaptation & Mitigation measures. The (NEEDs) initiative should provide opportunity for inputs into the National Development Plans (NDP).

13 Part (2):- 1. Jordan CO2 Emissions: Total Greenhouse gases were estimated at 20 MtCO2 in 2000 and were projected to increase to 30 MtCO2 by 2010 (Source: Jordan s Second National Communication Report) By 2009, Jordan emitted about 20 MtCO2 from energyrelated activities, or about 3.2 tons per capita. (Source: Energy Information Administration EIA) Jordan may experience a step increase in CO2 emissions in the next ten years due to more CO2 point sources on the horizon 13

14 2. Main CO2 Stationary Point Sources in Jordan Power Generation Cement & Fertilizer Production Oil Refining 14

15 3. Government CCS Policy, Law and Regulations: Jordan has no established regulatory or permitting procedures for CCS. Lack of comprehensive climate change legislation is the key barrier to CCS deployment. Challenges as legal & regulatory un-certainty can hinder the development of CCS projects. No carbon price & appropriate financial incentives for new technologies, noting that CCS technology is ranked as low-carbon technology. Pursue project opportunities to help also build institutional capacity and develop regulatory framework 15

16 4. Potential CCS activities: CCS for new and large CO2 emitting point sources in Jordan 6-11 Mt CO2/yr from Oil Refinery, Power Plants, Cement Plants and Oil-Shale Plant CO2 storage in saline formations of the Hamad and Wadi Sirhan basins Joint CCS activities with neighboring countries Establish CO2 pipeline network to make CO2 available in Egypt, Iraq and Saudi Arabia 16

17 5. CO2 Sources and EOR/Sequestration Sites CO2 Sources Sequestration site 17

18 6. Support of CCS Trust Fund: Raise awareness of various public and private institutions in Jordan on CCS; initial focus: build capacity to make informed policy decisions related to CCS Plan to fund a Public-Private Jordanian research team on CCS, creating in-country knowledge on CCS A need to coordinate with the MEMR, MOE, & Private Sector on a Feasibility Study of a CCS Pilot activity in Jordan Geologic assessment of the Wadi Sirhan Basin in the Eastern Desert Reservoir characterization and CO2 injectivity pilot in the deep Disi sandstone in the Hamad Basin near Risha. 18

19 Moving Forward:- Details of the Technical Assistance: Identification of potential CCS activities for Jordan CO2 sources : Cement Plants, Power Plants, Oil Refinery, etc. CO2 storage : Gas and oil fields, saline water aquifers, shale formation, etc. CO2 usage : Enhanced oil/gas recovery, water displacement, food industries, etc. Capacity building activities Institutional coordination / involving Private Sector Keeping abreast of evolving technology Identification of barriers for CCS activities Law and regulations Cost/financing aspects 19

20 Effort is important, but knowing where and when to make an effort in your life makes all the difference.

22 Estimated cost were calculated based on fuel oil usage as a source of energy Distance from Aqaba to Samra is 393 km, and the cost of pipe line installation per km is 800,000 U $. This cost is distributed among all the power stations that utilize natural gas based on their installed capacities. In addition, a cost of 10 M US$ is added for internal installations for each power station.
