Dr. Ahmad Muhaidat has administrated and implemented more
than 15 research & applied projects in the field of
renewable energy utilization and application in cooperation
with several national (MoP, WAJ, MEMR RSS, NERC, HCST) and
international institutions & agencies (GTZ-Germany, NREl-Colorado,
USAID, DOE-USA, EU, ZSW-Stuttgart, SIJ-Aachen…etc). The
budged for each of these projects varied from 100,000 to
500,000US$. His research interests are in the areas of
renewable energy systems ,
(solar energy, wind energy, water desalination systems
powered by renewable energy sources, producing elec. Energy
from raw material recycling, Biogas, Biomass, and
geothermal). Dr. Muhaidat has extensive experience in
renewable energy utilization and applications, design and
optimization of renewable energy systems, administrating,
planning and implementing of renewable energy projects.
