First Morocco solar unit to be thermal
Morocco, which
plans to invest $9 billion to build five solar power stations, had
opted for solar thermal technology for the first unit, to be set up in
the southern Ourzazate area, its solar energy agency chief said.
The North African
country’s government had previously not revealed which solar technology
it would choose, with officials saying they were open to all types.
“The first stage of
the $9 billion solar project will be achieved to satisfy the needs of
the country’s electricity operator ONE, which required the storage of
power,” Moroccan Agency for Solar Energy (MASEN) chief executive
officer, Mustapha Bakoury, said on Friday.
