Morocco is preparing to launch a massive foray into clean energy with its ambitious 1.6 GW BESS projects. The National Office for Electricity and Drinking Water (ONEE) is expected to invite tenders for battery energy storage systems (BESS) totaling nearly 1,600MW.
Within Morocco’s green energy ecosystem, climate-smart and green technologies are emerging as a foundation of its innovation ecosystem of start-up MSMEs and the incubators and accelerators to support them. This innovation ecosystem has formed the leading edge of the opportunity for MSMEs under the growing national focus on sustainable development.
The production of and transition to renewable energy through Morocco’s green energy system is emerging as a key contributor to high-quality job creation. The expansion of the green industrial manufacturing and sustainable solutions sectors is at the threshold of becoming a driver for more expansive high-quality job creation.
Morocco’s Green Generation Plan 2020-2030, promulgated within the same time frame as the New Model of Development, similarly envisions a synergistic convergence between energy transition and women and youth employment as the country incorporates advanced green technologies to develop sustainable high-value-added agricultural production.
Morocco’s 1.6 GW BESS projects represent a key step in its clean energy ambitions. The facilities will electrify key urban areas and firm up the grid. Although the initial focus is in the northwest, the government aims nationwide. Furthermore, the projects align with Morocco’s ambitions to generate 52% of its electricity from renewables by 2030.
