Synopsis

Project Overview

Falcon Ma’an is a 21 MW solar PV power plant located in the Ma’an Development Area (MDA), South of the capital Amman, Jordan, with an estimated project cost of US$50.2. All output generated by the Project will connect to a newly built substation in MDA and be sold to Jordan’s National Electric Power Company (NEPCO) under a 20-year Power Purchase Agreement (PPA). The Project is part of the GoJ’s Renewable Energy Program, which aimed to increase renewable energy contribution to 10% of the country’s generation mix by 2020.

The complaint raised concerns related to discontinuation of community engagement and CSR initiatives, local employment challenges, employment structure and labor practices.

Action

In August 2025, CAO found the complaint eligible and began its assessment.
