Jordan's water security plan tied to fossil gas demand
Original: Jordan’s mega-plan for water security risks locking in fossil gas demand
Jordan is pursuing a large-scale water security programme, but analysts warn the plan could lock the country into long-term fossil gas demand to power desalination and water infrastructure. Climate observers argue the strategy risks contradicting decarbonisation goals, raising questions about whether Jordan should pair its water investments with renewable energy instead of new gas dependence.
Why now: Concerns that new water infrastructure financed around fossil gas could undermine climate goals and entrench gas use for decades.
