Morocco Collaborates with Nareva and GE Vernove for a Green Hydrogen Project

Morocco is taking a significant step towards a cleaner future by partnering with renewable energy leaders Nareva and GE Vernova on a green hydrogen project. The partnership will conduct a feasibility study to replace fuel with green hydrogen to operate a 99-megawatt power plant.

The plant is located in Laayoune. The Laayoune power plant, currently fueled by heavy oil, will be the focal point of the feasibility study. The collaboration will delve into the technical and economic aspects of converting the plant's gas turbine to run entirely on green hydrogen.

This ambitious project marks a significant leap in Morocco's ambitious renewable energy goals. The country, which currently generates 40% of its electricity from renewable sources, aims to boost this to 52% by 2030. A promising route to a future free of harmful carbon emissions is the production of green hydrogen through water electrolysis using renewable energy sources like wind and solar.

Under the agreement, a comprehensive feasibility study will be conducted to assess the technical and economic viability of converting the Laayoune power plant. This includes exploring the logistics of hydrogen production at Nareva's Laayoune wind farm, transportation, storage, and integration into the existing power grid. GE Vernova's expertise in gas turbines will be crucial in adapting the plant's technology to efficiently utilize green hydrogen as fuel.
