WELCOME WORD
On behalf of the Jordan Cigre National Committee (JCNC) and the National
Committees of Cigre in Arab Countries (Egypt, Algeria, Arab Gulf, Libya) I
have the honor to invite you to participate in the Seventh Regional
Conference of Cigre that will be held in Amman, Jordan from the 3rd to the
5th of September 2007 under the Patronage of His Excellency the
Jordanian Prime Minister.
This important event will provide a unique opportunity to Cigre members
and interested power system professionals to present their technical
papers on their most recent advancements and product innovations.
The conference will bring together Power System Engineers, Decision
Makers and Academic Institutions in an open forum where all participants
will have the chance to learn about the latest products and technological
innovations in the Power Industry Sector.
The organization of this conference and the associated exhibition that will
be held in the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan reflects the National Policy of
His Majesty King Abdullah II; that is to promote Jordan as a regional
leader for hosting conferences, seminars and workshops, as well as
promoting exchange of knowledge and cooperation worldwide.
I’m confident that this event will be a valuable contribution to the growth
and development of the Power Industry Sector in our region.
We are proud that our country is hosting this very prestigious event and
look forward to your active participation.
Dr. Ahmad Hiyasat
JCNC Chairman

Cigre in brief
Jordan Cigre National Committee (JCNC) is one of 56 regional
national committees, which emerged from the International
Council on Large Electric Systems “CIGRE International” which
is an international, non government, non-profit organization
founded in France in 1921.
“CIGRE International” is composed of a worldwide forum that
covers all the main topics in the field of electricity. It unites all
key partners by facilitating and developing the exchange of
technical information between electrical engineers, research
workers, universities, producers, manufacturers, system operators,
and regulatory bodies.
CIGRE develops technical knowledge using the following two
methods:
A. Through conferences, meetings and/or seminars, where
papers are produced and discussed.
B. Via permanent Study Committees that work on important
technical subjects and publishing their findings.
JCNC Mission Statement
- To facilitate the exchange of the latest research carried out in
the region on electrical power systems related to planning,
operation, design, maintenance of H.V. equipment, protection
of power systems, telecommunication and automation
equipment and information systems.
- To promote technical studies carried out by universities,
electrical companies and other interested parties in the region
in order to participate in CIGRE seminars and conferences.
