See Jordan Biogas Company. Is a “non-profit company” established to produce electrical energy and to contribute to the protection of the environment by reducing the quantity of pollutants in landfills in Jordan. The company was created by the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources in 1998 through a UNDP supported project. Given the progress achieved by this biogas project and according to the Kyoto Protocol mechanism, the Finnish Government agreed to buy carbon credits from the company for a price of 7.8 Euro per ton of carbon dioxide. The company then requested that the Jordanian Government provide incentives within the biogas industry in order to enhance sustainable development at the national level.
