Abstract

Considering the energy needs of human beings on a global level, attention is currently oriented to existing possibilities of using renewable energy resources. In this context Arab countries could play an important role regarding the usage of solar energy for assuring electric energy supply for the population. In this regard a case study for the Jordanian situation will be debated about applying potential of solar energy, especially of photovoltaic panels for delivering needed electric energy.
