AMMAN, Jordan, Jan. 18 (UPI) -- U.S. Energy Secretary Samuel Bodman met with Jordanian Prime Minister Nader al-Dahabi to discuss energy cooperation, including nuclear.
The two discussed the role of science and technology in providing solutions to global energy challenges and energy security. Jordan's Higher Council for Science and Technology is a scientific and technological center responsible for research, development, and training to accelerate the use of new and renewable energy technologies.
"The U.S. and Jordan have a strong and growing relationship in advancing global energy security. Cutting-edge energy technologies such as those being developed in Jordan complement efforts underway in the United States to harness scientific innovation to provide greater energy options," Bodman said. "Through robust investment in the development of a diversity of energy sources, including nuclear power, alternative and renewable energy sources, and conventional sources, Jordan can increase its long term energy security and power economic growth."
Bodman highlighted Jordan's participation in the Global Nuclear Energy Partnership and the importance of cooperation to increase the peaceful use of nuclear energy.
