\u201cWe are committed to optimizing Morocco\u2019s renewable assets and achieving the United Nation\u2019s sustainable development goals by delivering affordable and reliable energy,\u201d Hamane said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cMorocco already generates four gigawatts of renewable energy and another four gigawatts are under construction or at a final stage of development to provide green, carbonfree energy to power homes and industry.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Solar<\/strong>: The Noor Solar Plant at Ouarzazate (the gateway to the Sahara Desert) is the world\u2019s largest multitechnological solar power plant, including 510 megawatts of storage capacity (up to eight hours of storage, providing electricity even during the night). With a capacity of 580 MW, the plant supplies energy to approximately 2 million Moroccans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wind<\/strong>: The first phase of the Taza Wind Farm, constructed by EDF Renewables and Mitsui & Co., will begin operations in 2022. The farm is expected to generate 87 MW and deliver power to around 350,000 people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hydro<\/strong>: Morocco has 140 dams and more than 30 generate electricity with a combined capacity of over 1.7 GW. Sixty more dams are expected to be built by 2030.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

MASEN is developing projects for green hydrogen to be commissioned starting from 2025.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cMorocco is working closely with more than 20 African countries to promote renewables across the continent,\u201d Hamane said. \u201cAs a regional hub for renewable energy, we will continue to build capacity, provide power and drive progress.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
