ACWA Power to develop 800 MW solar + battery storage project in Morocco
ACWA Power has won contracts to build and operate two solar photovoltaic (PV) projects in Morocco, Noor Midelt II and Noor Midelt III, each with a capacity of 400 MW.
Both projects will include battery energy storage systems, providing a combined storage capacity of 602 megawatt-hours (MWh). The storage systems can deliver 230 MW for two hours.
These projects will be executed under a build-own-operate model and backed by a 30-year power purchase agreement with the Moroccan Agency for Sustainable Energy.
