Does Morocco need solar power?
And even as it seeks to end its dependence on fossil fuels, its energy demands are rising fast. Despite these challenges, Morocco has a huge natural potential to produce solar, wind and hydropower, and has taken significant steps to realise it.
What is Morocco's largest solar power plant?
Morocco also built the Noor-Ouarzazate complex, the world's largest concentrated solar power plant, an enormous array of curved mirrors spread over 3,000 hectares (11.6 sq miles) which concentrate the Sun's rays towards tubes of fluid, with the hot liquid then used to produce power.
How much energy does Morocco produce from renewables?
Production of energy from renewables lagged behind a little, at closer to 20% of the country's total in 2019. But the country has come a long way. Morocco has since pledged to increase the renewables in its electricity mix to 52% by 2030, made up of 20% solar, 20% wind and 12% hydro.
Will Morocco replace coal power plants with natural gas power plants?
Morocco’s strategic initiative to replace coal power plants with natural gas combined-cycle power plants emerges as a potential solution to enhance power system resilience against water stress. The national plan aims to install an additional 2,400 MW of natural gas power plant capacity by 2030 and completely phase out coal-fired plants by 2050.
