Green Villages
It is our responsibility to protect the earth we live on.
Green Villages
SOS Children’s villages Jordan strongly believes in the importance of achieving environmental sustainability. Since the beginning of 2015, the association initiated multiple environmental projects that included harnessing rainwater for plant irrigation, repurposing water and waste through recycling, constructing plastic houses, and adopting organic agricultural methods. In addition to implementing the renewable energy project carried out by AES Jordan through their generous donation for the three villages in Amman, Irbid and Aqaba, where they covered the costs of installing and operating the solar system in all three villages. This project promotes environmental responsibility and improves children's quality of life through sustainable energy.
The installation of photovoltaic (PV) systems in our three villages, currently amounting to 328 kw, has resulted in an annual production of 500 thousand Kilowatt/hours (KwH), and a significant reduction in our carbon footprint by preventing approximately 170 tons of carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions each year.
The launch of this project marks a significant milestone towards achieving the association’s future strategy of environmental sustainability through green methodologies and resource preservation.
