Engineering sunlight into lower bills.

I design, build and commission solar PV systems, from family rooftops to 12 MW desert plants, across Jordan, Iraq and the Gulf.

01 About

The engineer on the roof and the advisor at the table.

Electrical engineer with 9 years in solar PV, from residential rooftops to utility-scale plants. I started on site supervising installations, moved into design, and now lead teams delivering commercial and multi-megawatt projects. Before a single panel goes up, every client knows what they will save and when the system pays for itself.

02 Expertise

Six ways I put the sun to work.

01

Residential rooftops

Systems sized to your roof and real consumption, with net-metering handled end to end.

02

Commercial & industrial

Up to 1 MW for factories, hotels, hospitals and schools, built around daytime loads.

03

Utility-scale plants

Megawatt solar farms: layout, protection, commissioning and grid connection.

04

Hybrid & battery storage

PV with batteries that protects critical loads and cuts diesel use by up to 85%.

05

Solar water pumping

Off-grid pumping that replaces diesel on farms and cuts running costs by about 75%.

06

Energy audits & feasibility

Yield simulation and a clear financial model (ROI, payback) before you commit.

03 Selected projects

Built in the field, proven on the meter.
