Frequently Asked Questions: Jordan Electricity Tariffs & EMRC Rules
Who is eligible for the subsidized electricity tariff in Jordan?
The subsidized tariff is reserved for:
- Jordanian families holding a Family Book (دفتر عائلة), covering one primary residential meter.
- Jordanian single individuals living independently away from family, upon submitting tenancy verification.
- Holders of temporary Jordanian passports (Gazan residents) and children of Jordanian women married to non-Jordanians.
- Registered solar renewable energy net-metering subscribers who fulfill eligibility criteria.
How is the automatic government support discount (الخصم التلقائي) applied?
The EMRC automated billing engine applies fixed monthly deductions directly onto eligible subsidized bills:
51 to 300 kWh: Fixed JOD 2.50 Discount | 301 to 400 kWh: Fixed JOD 2.00 Discount This discount appears as a separate line item on the monthly electricity bill, immediately lowering the net payable amount.
Why is the non-subsidized tariff set at 120 fils and 150 fils?
Under the government's tariff reform, the non-subsidized rate reflects the true economic cost of electricity generation and transmission in Jordan, without Treasury subsidies. It simplifies billing into two flat bands: 120 fils per kWh for consumption up to 937 kWh, and 150 fils per kWh for all units consumed thereafter.
What is the "Fils Al-Reef" (فلس الريف) fee?
Fils Al-Reef is a statutory charge of 1 fils (0.001 JOD) per consumed kilowatt-hour established by the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources. The proceeds are ring-fenced to finance the expansion of the electrical grid to remote rural communities, agricultural settlements, and low-income rural households across the Kingdom.
How does solar rooftop net-metering affect the electricity bill?
Under EMRC renewable energy directives, grid-tied solar photovoltaic (PV) subscribers have their consumed energy offset against generated units. If generation exceeds consumption, surplus units roll over to subsequent months as an energy credit. However, solar subscribers remain liable for fixed grid connectivity fees, TV license, and municipal sanitation charges.
