European Investment Bank backs feasibility study for Morocco’s first offshore wind project
A consortium led by OWC will conduct a two-year feasibility study for what could become Morocco’s first offshore wind project, evaluating site conditions, grid integration, supply chain requirements, and regulatory frameworks along the country’s Atlantic coast.
Why this news matters:
-
Morocco is one of Africa’s most advanced renewable energy markets, and a successful project could establish a new offshore wind sector along the Atlantic coast while creating opportunities for international developers and suppliers.
-
The study will examine not only wind resources but also ports, logistics, grid integration, environmental impacts, and regulatory requirements, providing a roadmap for future offshore wind development in the country.
