Get a quoteMorocco has an average solar potential of 5 kilowatt hours (kWh) per square meter per day, although this varies geographically. Total installed capacity from solar energy currently stands at 831 MW. According to the Ministry of Energy Transition, and Sustainable Development, Morocco could potentially generate 25,000 MW of wind power.
Since 2023, several Chinese lithium battery industry chain companies, including CATL, Gotion High-Tech, Sunwoda, BTR, Huayou Cobalt, CNGR Advanced Material and Tinci Materials, have collectively invested in Morocco and built factories. The battery industry chain centered around LFP is forming rapidly.
Total installed capacity from solar energy currently stands at 831 MW. According to the Ministry of Energy Transition, and Sustainable Development, Morocco could potentially generate 25,000 MW of wind power. At present, Morocco has an installed capacity from wind energy of 1553 MW, the second largest volume in Africa behind South Africa.
Huayou Cobalt and LG Energy Solution will co-build a plant in Morocco, one for 50,000 tons of LFP annually and another for 52,000 tons of lithium conversion annually. In addition to abundant phosphate reserves, Morocco also possesses metal resources like cobalt and lithium needed for battery production and has cost advantages.
In addition to abundant phosphate reserves, Morocco also possesses metal resources like cobalt and lithium needed for battery production and has cost advantages. Industry estimates suggest that producing lithium batteries in Morocco offers a 36% cost advantage compared to other countries.
Additionally, Sunwoda is also setting up a battery production base in Morocco. The number of material manufacturers investing in Morocco is even larger. In April this year, Zhongke Electric planned to invest about $699 million (US) to implement an integrated base project for producing 100,000 tons/year of anode materials in Morocco.
