The renewable energy sector in the Guelmim-Oued Noun region is a vital area that contributes to promoting sustainable development and ensuring the region’s energy security. The region is blessed with rich natural resources, with sun and wind as key factors, making it an ideal location for developing renewable energy projects. The region records high levels of solar irradiation throughout the year, allowing for efficient solar energy production, in addition to favorable conditions for the exploitation of wind energy.The region is working to develop a solid infrastructure to support the renewable energy sector, strengthening its ability to attract local and international investment. In addition, renewable energy contributes to reducing dependence on traditional energy sources, which helps achieve environmental sustainability goals and decrease carbon emissions.

In addition, the green economy has become a field of competition and attraction on a global scale, due to the new development direction based on the use of renewable energies, due to their limited cost and positive impact on the environment. This has led our country to develop a national strategy for renewable energies. The Council of the region has also committed to ensuring a place for this region on the world map of green hydrogen production, by attracting the interest of global and national investors for this sector in the region’s territory.

Strengths of the renewable energy sector

  • Sunny climate throughout the year, conducive to the production of renewable energy.
  • Location open to the seafront and northwest air currents.
  • Ideal environment for the generation of electricity and green hydrogen.

MAJOR PROJECTS

  • Establishment of the Guelmim-Oued Noun platform “GON H2 Valley”: Green hydrogen system
  • Project for the production and export of green energy by the British company (Xlinks)
  • Project for ammonia and green hydrogen via renewable energies by the American company (H1M)
  • Two projects by the French company (Total EREN) for the production of wind energy and green hydrogen.
  • Project of the Moroccan Agency for Sustainable Energy (MASEN) for the creation of two power plants for the production of electricity from renewable energies.
