據能源世界網8月3日首爾報道，周一韓國南方電力公司（Korea Southern Power）宣布，該公司已開始約旦塔菲拉（Jordan Tafila）風力發電項目的商業運營。

　　約旦塔菲拉風力發電項目是韓國南方電力開展的第一個海外風電項目。該項目是韓國南方電力和DL能源各投資50%股份，在約旦塔菲拉建設并運營15臺發電能力為3.45兆瓦的風力發電機組的項目。該項目共投入了1200億韓元。

　　韓國南方電力解釋道，由于新冠疫情，其在推廣該項目時遇到了困難，但通過與約旦政府談判獲得建筑工人特殊入境和雇用當地員工的批準，使其成功地進入了商業運營。

　　Korea Southern Power to start commercial operation of wind power plant in Jordan

　　Korea Southern Power announced on Monday that it started commercial operation of the Jordan Tafila Wind Power Project.

　　Jordan Tafila Wind Power Project is the first overseas wind power project conducted by Korea Southern Power. It is a project that Korea Southern Power and DL Energy invested 50 percent of shares each to build and operate 15 wind power generators, which have a generation capacity of 3.45 mega Watt each, in Tafila, Jordan. A total of 120 billion won was invested in this project.

　　Korea Southern Power explained that it had difficulties in promoting the project due to the COVID-19 pandemic, but it succeeded in commercial operation by negotiating with the Jordan government to obtain approval for special entry of construction workers and hiring local employees.

　　The company will supply electrical power to more than 50,000 households in Tafila through the wind farm. It is planning to hire more than 40 local people for maintenance, logistics, and security of facilities.

　　Korea Southern Power predicted that it will generate a total of 360 billion won in sales through an electricity supply contract with Jordanian National Electric Power Company (NEPCO) for 20 years after the completion of the wind power plant.
