AMMAN — Deputising for His Majesty King Abdullah, HRH Crown Prince Hussein on Wednesday inaugurated a photovoltaic power station at King’s Academy, the Jordan News Agency, Petra, reported.

The station, with a capacity of 2.6 megawatts, was designed and built by ACWA Power, a Saudi Arabian company specialised in developing and operating power generation and water desalination facilities.

The new station will reduce carbon dioxide emissions by 2,300 tonnes, in addition to providing electricity for 350 housing units, according to Petra. John Austin, the academy’s headmaster, briefed the Crown Prince on the phases of implementing the project, which is in line with the academy’s plans to reduce costs, improve the capabilities and skills of its students, and increase the number of scholarships.
