FAQS about Morocco energy storage developers

What is the first large-scale electricity storage project in Morocco?

The first large-scale electricity storage project in Morocco is the 460 MW Afourer Pumped Storage Power Station ( PETS ), commissioned in 2004. It consists of a hydraulic system composed of two 1.3 million-m 3 water reservoirs connected by a pipeline with two hydroelectric production units between the basins.

How does electricity storage work in Morocco?

It ensures the storage of electricity produced by renewable energies in order to adapt fluctuating supply to shifting demand. The first large-scale electricity storage project in Morocco is the 460 MW Afourer Pumped Storage Power Station ( PETS ), commissioned in 2004.

What is the Moroccan Agency for Solar Energy (MASEN)?

The Moroccan Agency for Solar Energy (MASEN) was set up specifically to execute these projects. Its mission is to implement all projects related to the National Energy Strategy and to co-ordinate and supervise all other activities connected with this initiative.

How can Morocco transform its energy sector?

Morocco has embarked on an ambitious journey to transform its energy sector. This ambition is driven by the High Royal Orientations and has three key pillars: increasing renewable energy capacity, promoting energy efficiency, and fostering regional integration.

Should Moroccan investors invest in renewables projects?

Moroccan institutional investors have already deployed funds for renewables projects, and this should be built upon. Foreign exchange risk has been taken on by MASEN for past procurement rounds, allowing developers to bid in hard currency.

How is Morocco pursuing a resilient energy future?

Morocco is pursuing a resilient energy future through a multifaceted approach. This includes a strategic focus on renewable energy sources to accompany its energy transition, and the diversification of its energy mix to ensure a sustainable energy transition without compromising energy security.
