On Sunday, August 22^nd, 2021, the German Jordanian University, ESMES partner in Jordan, visited the “TECHNO GROUP for Electrical Systems and Automation” manufacturing facility in Mafraq Jordan, to inspect the Data collection systems’ panel boards assembly. The Factory Acceptance Test (FAT) was conducted with the presence of both the ESMES engineering team and the contractor’s team. A demonstration of the communication protocols was also witnessed, and the system was deemed ready for installation and site deployment.

The contract is for the ESMES energy monitoring activities in 9 public schools in Jordan, whereby the schools will be equipped with smart meters to track real-time energy consumption and behavior. In addition, an online platform will be provided that will be used by all partners in 5 countries (Italy, Spain, Lebanon, Jordan, and Tunisia) to monitor, record, and display data from all schools involved in the project (44 schools and approximately 37,000 school users, both staff and students).
