ABSTRACT
On 10 May 2015, the Government of Jordan (GOJ) launched ‘Jordan 2025 Vision and National Strategy’, a 10-year blueprint for economic and social development that will guide the country’s economic, fiscal and social policies over the next decade. The document lays out a set of ambitious targets that include increasing the gross domestic product (GDP) growth rate from 3.1% in 2014 to 7.5% by 2025. 1 Reaching these targets will be difficult given the host of challenges Jordan faces – energy insecurity arguably being the most important and the most vexing of them. 2
