In Jordan, the use of wind energy production is being taken into consideration due to the international tend of the exploitation of renewable sources of energy. Two small size wind power plants were installed. The first wind power plant is Hofa power plant. It is located in the North of Jordan, less than 92 km away of Amman.
The present research investigates the most suitable Jordanian site for wind farm power generation. The following conclusions are made: 1. Ras Moneef site has the highest values of wind potential, total energy produced, and annual net profit among all other sites investigated. It has the lowest cost of generating 1 kW h of wind energy. 2.
The 86.1 megawatt (MW) Wind Farm consists of 41 Wind Turbine Generators (WTGs) across 850 hectares and is located near the village of Al Rajef in the Ma'an Governorate, approximately 200km south of Amman, in the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan.
