What Power Engineering World does
Power Engineering World (PEW) is a privately held Iraqi Engineering, Procurement and Construction (EPC) services company founded in 2003, headquartered in Baghdad with operational offices in Najaf, Basra, and Amman (Jordan). The company delivers multi-disciplinary full project life-cycle services across power generation, grid and power transmission, oil and gas, refineries, pipelines and tank farms, automation and instrumentation and control (I&C), water and wastewater treatment, chemicals, and buildings and infrastructure. PEW is registered as a 1st-class contractor with the Iraqi Ministry of Planning and is the first Iraqi company to hold ASME A (Boilers), PP (Pressure Piping), and R (Power Boilers) stamps, supported by ISO 9001:2015, ISO 14001:2015, and ISO 45001:2018 certifications. It reports having installed and commissioned 4,500 MW of power capacity in Iraq, with active and completed mega-projects including the BABIL 400/132 kV GIS rehabilitation (client Linxon, end-user Iraq MOE), Al-Diwaniya and Al-Haydaria gas turbine air-cooling systems (4x GE Power 9E units), Karbala refinery PKG1-2, 33 kV OHTL, and the Al Zubair Power Plant.
PEW generates revenue primarily through project-based EPC contracts awarded by government ministries (notably the Iraq Ministry of Electricity) and prime contractors (Linxon, HDGSK JV), with revenue recognized per project milestone or completion. A secondary, emerging revenue stream is solar PV hardware supply and turnkey installation services, using tier-1 Jinko Solar modules (25-year guarantee) stocked at PEW's Baghdad warehouse and deployed by in-house teams for residential, commercial, and institutional customers in Iraq and Jordan (e.g., 33 kWp across four schools and a dispensary in Ajlun, Jordan for client Cowater Sogema; 2.2 kW residential system in Baghdad). Go-to-market is enterprise field sales for large tenders and RFPs, supplemented by direct-to-customer solar distribution and university co-hosted technical symposiums for brand building.
Leadership is led by CEO and Executive Director Mr. Hamid Jaber (a Jordanian consulting engineer with publicly stated solar energy expertise) and Iraq Managing Director Mr. Samir Kadhim. Key partners include Linxon (channel/prime contractor), HDGSK JV (implementation), GE Power and MAPNA (OEMs for gas turbines), Jinko Solar (PV technology), and Cowater Sogema (implementation). No parent company, external investors, or M&A activity is disclosed.

Headquartered in Baghdad with offices in Najaf, Basra, and Amman, PEW reports 4,500 MW of installed and commissioned power capacity in Iraq.
Product overview
Power Engineering World (PEW) is an Iraqi EPC (Engineering, Procurement and Construction) services company, established in 2003 and registered as a 1st class company, offering a multi-disciplinary project delivery platform rather than a single software product. Its core offering is EPC Services, supported by eight operational fields: Power Generation, Grid and Power Transmission, Oil and Gas Services, Pipelines and Tanks Farm, Automation and I&C Solutions, Water and Wastewater Treatment, Chemicals, and Buildings and Infrastructures. The Power Generation and Grid and Power Transmission capabilities form the core of its heavy-engineering work (e.g., 4,500 MW installed and commissioned in Iraq, BABIL 400/132kV GIS rehabilitation, Al-Diwaniya and Al-Haydaria power plant cooling systems), while Solar Energy EPC Services is a specialized service line covering residential, commercial, and institutional PV projects using Jinko Solar modules. ASME-Certified Boiler, Pressure Vessel and Piping Fabrication is a differentiated, certified capability underpinning the company's pressure-bound work. Together, the core EPC Services platform, the eight operational fields, the specialized Solar Energy EPC Services, and the ASME-certified fabrication capability form PEW's integrated service portfolio.

Power Engineering World competitors and assessment
Company assessmentDirect peers
- Archirodon Construction: Greek-headquartered international EPC contractor specializing in power plants, substations, desalination, and oil & gas infrastructure across MENA. Comparable in multi-discipline EPC delivery and customer mix (utilities and EPC primes), with similar reliance on local execution partners in Iraq and the Gulf.
- SEPCO3 Electric Power Construction: Chinese EPC subsidiary of PowerChina executing turnkey power plants, substations, and transmission projects across the Middle East, including Iraq. Directly comparable in power-generation and grid-rehabilitation EPC delivery, often acting as the prime contractor that engages local Iraqi firms such as PEW as subcontractors.
- ENKA İnşaat: Turkish-listed global EPC contractor with a strong power-plant, oil & gas, and refinery track record across the Middle East, including Iraq. Comparable in multi-discipline EPC scope (civil, mechanical, electrical, I&C) and in serving both government utilities and international EPC primes on mega-projects.
- Elsewedy Electric: Egyptian-listed multi-disciplinary power and infrastructure EPC group delivering cables, substations, transformers, and turnkey power projects across MENA. Highly comparable to PEW in scope (power generation, transmission, oil & gas) and target market (Middle East government utilities and EPC primes), though at materially larger scale.
- Mass Global Group: Iraqi power generation and EPC group operating gas and thermal power plants inside Iraq. Directly comparable to PEW's power-generation EPC focus and Iraq-centric customer base, with a similar reliance on MOE and provincial power demand.
- KAR Group: Iraqi conglomerate with energy EPC, power generation, and oil & gas operations, including projects in Kurdistan and federal Iraq. Directly comparable to PEW as a local Iraqi multi-discipline EPC serving MOE and refinery clients, with overlapping capability in power plants and oil & gas construction.
Regional players
- National Petroleum Construction Company (NPCC): UAE-based EPC contractor specializing in oil & gas, refineries, and petrochemical infrastructure for NOCs across the Gulf. Comparable in refinery and oil & gas EPC delivery to PEW's Karbala refinery work, but primarily serves UAE and Gulf state oil clients rather than the Iraqi market.
Broad incumbents
- GE Vernova: GE's power and grid OEM/EPC spin-off, the original equipment manufacturer of the GE Power 9E gas turbines PEW services in Iraq. Comparable through the OEM relationship on Al-Diwaniya and Al-Haydaria, but operates as a broad incumbent across the entire global power value chain rather than as an in-country EPC contractor.
- Larsen & Toubro (L&T) Construction: Indian conglomerate with a large construction arm executing power transmission, substations, refineries, and oil & gas EPC across the Middle East. Overlaps with PEW in EPC scope (high-voltage substations, refinery packages) but operates as a much larger, more diversified incumbent with direct MOE and NOC relationships in the region.
- Técnicas Reunidas: Spanish-listed EPC contractor for oil & gas, refining, and power projects globally, with significant activity in Iraq and the Middle East. Comparable in refinery and power EPC scope (similar to PEW's Karbala and Al Zubair work), but at much larger contract sizes and with direct prime-contractor status with Iraqi state oil and power clients.
