Saudi Arabian renewable energy giant ACWA Power announced its successful bid for the NOOR Midelt 2 and NOOR Midelt 3 solar projects, with a total installed capacity of 800 MWp, in an international tender organized by Morocco’s Sustainable Energy Agency (MASEN).
This globally significant integrated solar-plus-storage project will be equipped with a 602 MWh battery energy storage system, positioning Morocco as the first African country to commercially deploy large-scale “PV + storage” technology. The initiative provides a replicable “Moroccan model” for energy transition in North Africa and other emerging global markets.
